Re: [heycam/webidl] get-buffer-source-{reference,copy} ought to point to the algorithm (#229)

This is just an artifact of Web IDL's wonky splint into language-independent concepts ("get a copy of the bytes held by the buffer source") and ECMAScript bindings (the algorithm you found).

It's correct for specs to link to the language-independent concepts. One day we will squish them together, but for now this just parallels the rest of the spec. E.g. the definition of the language independent "double" type doesn't forward-link to the specific way that you might get a double given an ECMAScript environment.
