This commit updates the JSHandle class to take a generic representing
the underlying object that it's wrapping. We can then define
`ElementHandle` as a class that extends `JSHandle<Element>` and begin
to get better type inference.
Prior to this commit the following code would have `d` set to `any`:
```
const div: page.$<HTMLDivElement>('div')
const text = await div.evaluate(d => d.innerText)
```
You could work around this in two ways:
```
const text = await div.evaluate<(d: HTMLDivElement) => string>(d => d.innerText)
const text = await div.evaluate((d: HTMLDivElement) => d.innerText)
```
But both of these have two issues:
1. Requires the user to type extra information.
2. There's no type checking: in the code above I could type `d` as
`number` and TS would be happy.
With the change here to `evaluate` the user can now type the original
code:
```
const div: page.$<HTMLDivElement>('div')
const text = await div.evaluate(d => d.innerText)
```
And TypeScript will know that `d` is an `HTMLDivElement`.
This change brings us inline with the approach that @types/puppeteer
takes. If we land this and it works, we can do the same with
`evaluateHandle` to hopefully make a similar improvement there.
BREAKING: because this changes the types, which were previously `any`,
this is technically a breaking change as users using TS could start
getting errors after this change is released.
