Re: [whatwg/fetch] Fetch claims to define ReadableStream, but Streams is the actual location (#780)

The problem here is that Bikeshed doesn't recognize the notion of a JS class definition distinct from an IDL definition; in other words, I don't have definition types for JS itself. But Streams is using the IDL dfn types, so they're colliding here.

Ultimately tho, I don't understand why Streams wants to define the JS and *not* the IDL. It has its own reasons for wanting to provide an actual pure-JS dfn, and that's fine, but not having the IDL either just seems weird, given that every spec that wants to interact with it is going to do so via IDL. Weird for another spec to define the IDL (and do so purely in prose, too, rather than with an IDL block...).
