Re: [whatwg/fetch] "get, decode, and split" seems incorrect (#1068)

Hmm, I see.

Well, we've got an instance of https://github.com/whatwg/infra/issues/320 here with the extract-value flag.

Additionally, the note

> The extract-value flag argument makes this algorithm suitable for getting, decoding, and splitting and parse a MIME type, as well as other header value parsers that might need this. 

is misleading, since getting, decoding, and splitting explicitly does *not* use the flag. I'd suggest something like

> The extract-value flag gives the value inside the quotes, with any nested quotes unescaped.
