Re: [whatwg/streams] node streams coordination (#435)

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you on this. At this point:

- Readable streams are looking very solid. The new byte stream aspects perhaps a little less so, due to lack of implementer experience, but we're very happy with the design.
- Writable streams are lagging behind. They need several updates to align with the lessons learned during the design of readable streams, such as the need for exclusive locking.
- Transform streams are blocked on writable streams (as we still believe the best design for them is a { readable, writable } pair).

As for how problems were solved differently, https://github.com/whatwg/streams/blob/master/FAQ.md#what-are-the-main-differences-between-these-streams-and-nodejs-streams gives some idea.

Happy to continue discussing more if desired.
