Re: [streams] ReadableStream.getReader name is a bit misleading (#308)

I don't find `read` to be a confusing name for something that might throw if I called it at the wrong time. It doesn't seem like the same naming problem to me.

Alternatively, it could be more like the APIs that require user permissions, in that the access can be blocked:

```js
stream.requestReader(function(err, reader) {});
```

But then it gets all async and weird, but "request" feels more right.
