Re: [whatwg/streams] Assert there are no pending reads when releasing lock (#1168)

That's also a possibility.

I wouldn't want to leave the `read()` promises pending though, so I'd say `reader.releaseLock()` must reject all pending read requests with an `AbortError`. Or perhaps a `TypeError`, to align with how we reject `reader.closed`? 🤔

So basically `releaseLock()` becomes what `controller.abort()` would have done for the originally proposed `getReader({ signal: controller.signal })`.
