[whatwg/fetch] handling unknown content codings (#989)

This (https://fetch.spec.whatwg.org/#handle-content-codings):

> If codings are not supported, then return bytes. 

seems to suggest that upon processing a body, unknown content codings should be ignored. That would be bad; if a payload has a content coding, and the recipient does not understand it, it needs to be an error; just returning "bytes" would be incorrect.
