[1] defines the attribute 'detail' of all pointer events should be 0.

I'd like to revisit this again after the following concern is clarified.

Thanks!

It's pretty easy to override the protected value in subclass but I'd like to know the following concern before approving this approach: 
1. why this will be non-zero for a newly created PointerEvent instance in current implementation?
2. and why should we overwrite it here instead of having expected value be initiated in parent class(UIEvent)?

Per UI Event spec, detail of mousedown[1] and mouseup[2] indicates the current click count. Pointer events inherit mouse events, so this attribute of PointerEvent may be non-zero. Pointer event spec [3] says detail attribute should be 0, so we have to override this attribute.

// 5.2 Pointer Event types, for all pointer events, |detail| attribute SHOULD be 0.
  mDetail = 0;
