Re: [whatwg/streams] Switching to Web IDL (#963)

In private @tschneidereit mentioned a preference for non-enumerable methods. I'm not really familiar with the pros/cons myself, but as we want to start using IDL for more things, including JavaScript objects, it seems like this needs to be configurable. And if it's configurable we need to pick a correct default going forward. (I'm not sure if the way IDL does argument lengths, stringification, and property lookup is controversial.)

I guess those proposing the change to switch streams to IDL don't necessarily want to resolve that question, and I'm not sure it needs to be blocked on it, but I'd like to raise it here so it gets considered.

(See also https://github.com/heycam/webidl/issues/226 and https://github.com/heycam/webidl/issues/484 for the corresponding issues on the IDL side, and https://github.com/heycam/webidl/labels/jsidl for the general "jsidl" effort, which hasn't really started, but there's still active interest.)
