Summary: The "form" content attribute on <label> elements no longer means
anything. .form returns the .form of the labeled control, or null if
nothing is labeled or the labeled thing has no .form. In particular, you can
no longer associate a label with one form but associate its labeled
control with a different form.
Bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1268852
Spec: https://github.com/whatwg/html/pull/1120 and
https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/forms.html#the-label-element and
https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/forms.html#dom-label-form
Estimated release: 49
devtools bug: none needed, I think.
Support in other browsers: Chrome is planning to do this. See
<https://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/d/msg/blink-dev/QWyCpJjgfY8/TOxG9n-OAQAJ>.
According to that message, Edge and WebKit don't support the "form" content
attribute on <label> anyway; .form always returns the ancestor form in
those engines.

As I said in https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues/787 this change looks ok to
me.
