Re: [whatwg/fetch] From-Origin (#687)

I definitely like the idea of letting the server make decisions based on the sender of the request, but that might be a better fit for `Sec-Site` because of the legacy problems with `Referer` partly discussed in https://github.com/whatwg/fetch/issues/700#issuecomment-382762249. 

Specifically in this case if the application only sends `From-Origin` if there is no referrer then it's more likely that users with software that blocks/spoofs the `Referer` would break, because the site owner would not extensively test this case (since it's a behavior they wouldn't see by default).
