Re: [whatwg/fetch] what should fetch() do if request's window has been destroyed or stopped? (#153)

Similar to the user pressing the stop button, aborted media requests seem to have inconsistent behavior in browsers today.

Suppose you have an `Audio` object pointed at `https://example.com/some-live-stream`.  The live stream is a live HTTP progressive stream that has indefinite length.  Now, suppose you have a service worker:

```
self.addEventListener('fetch', (e) => {
  e.respondWith(fetch(e.request));
}
```

Now, kill the audio src:

```
audio.src = '';
```

On Chrome, the audio stream request is cancelled, which is what I would expect.  On Safari, the request keeps on going.
