Re: [whatwg/encoding] Document an implementation buffer trick (#84)

> I was going to add that encoders do not need an additional buffer at all, but what about the ISO-2022-JP encoder?

The encoders are all stateless, except for the ISO-20222-JP encoder, and the only piece of state it needs is ASCII/Roman/JIS0208. No buffer needed.

(Additionally, the only reason the encoders need to process EOF is to transition ISO-2022-JP back into the ASCII state. Even the ISO-2022-JP encoder even without EOF signaling would produce a stream that decodes without errors.)

Thank you.
