length 是 Storage 接口的只读属性，返回一个整数，表示存储在 Storage 对象里的数据项（data items）数量。
语法
var aLength = storage.length;
返回值
一个整数。
示例
下面的函数添加三个数据项到当前域名的本地存储里面，然后返回本地存储里面数据项的数量：
function populateStorage() {
localStorage.setItem('bgcolor', 'yellow');
localStorage.setItem('font', 'Helvetica');
localStorage.setItem('image', 'cats.png');
localStorage.length; // 返回 3
}
