[whatwg/streams] forAuthorCode can be a bit per reader (#964)

Eight different algorithms take a forAuthorCode argument, and it is passed to a lot of places. But if I understand the spec correctly, forAuthorCode is meant to be true iff the stream's current [[reader]] is visible to author code.

So it seems possible to give each reader a [[forAuthorCode]] field instead, and setting it to false in AcquireReadableStreamDefaultReader.

This seems more direct, and might even be a nice simplification; if you agree, I'd like to contribute a patch.
