WebGLContextEvent: WebGLContextEvent() constructor

The WebGLContextEvent() constructor creates a new WebGLContextEvent object.

Note: You typically don't need to call this constructor; the browser creates these objects automatically when WebGL context events get fired. To manually trigger a webglcontextlost event, use WEBGL_lose_context.loseContext().
