Dangerous "name" (and potentially others) global

TypeScript Version: 2.6.0-dev.20170913

Code

if (name === "asdf") {
  console.log("asdf")
}

https://www.typescriptlang.org/play/#src=if (name %3D%3D%3D "asdf") {%0D%0A console.log('hello')%0D%0A}

Expected behavior:

Error out

Actual behavior:

More than once, I had a "local" variable called name, outside a block scope, and it didn't warn me that it's not defined (or used before declaration). even though, in my code, event.name is a string, the global name variable is of type never. it's defined in lib.dom.d.ts, along with other "juicy" global names that will provide some confusion, like length, external, event, closed

one 'fix' (that would be a breaking change) would to make lib.dom-globals.d.ts (the propertiers that are usually accessible through window variable) and make it an opt-in in tsconfig.json compilerOptions.lib array

Start with the reproduction and the global declarations in lib.dom.d.ts, then review the proposed lib.dom-globals.d.ts split and tsconfig.json compilerOptions.lib behavior. Check the discussion for the agreed direction and identify how the undeclared name example and related globals should be handled. Done means the intended global-name behavior is implemented with coverage for the reported case.
