Re: [whatwg/fetch] 204 and json (#113)

I'm dealing with GitHub's [followers API](https://developer.github.com/v3/users/followers/#check-if-one-user-follows-another) and it returns empty responses as 404 or 204.

This is my solution:

```js
const content = await response.text();
const json = content.length > 0 ? JSON.parse(content) : {};
```

Aside: I think that **fetch**'s behavior is correct and APIs are breaking the contract by not sending valid JSON (`JSON.parse('')` also fails)
