[whatwg/fetch] Discuss: Removing `cache: reload` option from the API (#902)

Forcing a reload amplifies the timing signal in cache-based cross-origin leaks (see also http://sirdarckcat.blogspot.com/2019/03/http-cache-cross-site-leaks.html).

I'm filing this issue to discuss the trade-off. Is a control over the cache a granularity the web platform should have?
