getBoundingClientRect(el)

Identical to the native getBoundingClientRect function, but ensures that

This wrapper function also shims properties which are not provided by some
older browsers (namely, IE8).

Additionally, some browsers do not support adding properties to a
ClientRect/DOMRect object; so, we shallow-copy it with the standard
properties (except x and y which are not widely supported). This helps
avoid implementations where keys are non-enumerable.
