Re: [whatwg/streams] Make it easy to create streams with no underlying source/sink/transformer objects, from specs (#813)

Is there existing standard language for storing "algorithm steps" in a slot, or would we have to invent some? In Javascript and C++ it concretely means storing a bound function. That needs to be reasonably obvious to implementors.

I would also like these algo slots to have associated data, so we don't have a separate slot to store the "pull" function for an underlying source that will be totally unused in a TransformStream.

We also need language for creating a stream object without calling the public constructor.
