`<iron-form>` is a wrapper around the HTML `<form>` element, that can
validate and submit both custom and native HTML elements. Note that this
is a breaking change from iron-form 1.0, which was a type extension.

It has two modes: if `allow-redirect` is true, then after the form submission you
will be redirected to the server response. Otherwise, if it is false, it will
use an `iron-ajax` element to submit the form contents to the server.

  Example:

    <iron-form>
      <form method="get" action="/form/handler">
        <input type="text" name="name" value="Batman">
        <input type="checkbox" name="donuts" checked> I like donuts<br>
        <paper-checkbox name="cheese" value="yes" checked></paper-checkbox>
      </form>
    </iron-form>

By default, a native `<button>` element will submit this form. However, if you
want to submit it from a custom element's click handler, you need to explicitly
call the `iron-form`'s `submit` method.

  Example:

    <paper-button raised onclick="submitForm()">Submit</paper-button>

    function submitForm() {
      document.getElementById('iron-form').submit();
    }

If you are not using the `allow-redirect` mode, then you also have the option of
customizing the request sent to the server. To do so, you can listen to the `iron-form-presubmit`
event, and modify the form's [`iron-ajax`](https://elements.polymer-project.org/elements/iron-ajax)
object. However, If you want to not use `iron-ajax` at all, you can cancel the
event and do your own custom submission:

  Example of modifying the request, but still using the build-in form submission:

    form.addEventListener('iron-form-presubmit', function() {
      this.request.method = 'put';
      this.request.params['extraParam'] = 'someValue';
    });

  Example of bypassing the build-in form submission:

    form.addEventListener('iron-form-presubmit', function(event) {
      event.preventDefault();
      var firebase = new Firebase(form.getAttribute('action'));
      firebase.set(form.serializeForm());
    });

Note that if you're dynamically creating this element, it's mandatory that you
first create the contained `<form>` element and all its children, and only then
attach it to the `<iron-form>`:

  var wrapper = document.createElement('iron-form');
  var form = document.createElement('form');
  var input = document.createElement('input');
  form.appendChild(input);
  document.body.appendChild(wrapper);
  wrapper.appendChild(form);
