Re: [whatwg/streams] Run ReadableStream tests against ReadableByteStream (#217)

I have a tentative plan for this:

1. Move tests that are relevant to both types to a new directory, readable-streams-bikeshed. "relevant" usually means that the test result doesn't depend on the chunk type. For example, move the test `'ReadableStream instances should have the correct list of properties'` from readable-stream/general.js to a new file named readable-streams-bikeshed/general.js.
2. Modify the moved tests to use Uint8Array chunks. Probably defining chunks named `a` and `b` at the top of the file and replacing `"a"` with `a`, etc. would work in most cases.
3. Wrap all the tests in the file in a loop like `for (const type of [undefined, 'bytes'])`
4. [optional] Check if readable-byte-streams/ contains duplicates of the copied tests and if so remove them.

This is important to make sure byte streams are rock-solid, but is a tremendous amount of work. Volunteers welcome.
