Re: [whatwg/fetch] Request with GET/HEAD method cannot have body. (#551)

I tried using `fetch` and `node-fetch` to make GET with a request body, but it fails with:
```
Request with GET/HEAD method cannot have body
```

### Workaround for Nodejs runtimes (not in browser ... JS on the server)
Wanted to share a solution for those who don't have control over the API but would to make GETs with request bodies in NodeJS . You can use the [axios library](https://www.npmjs.com/package/axios) to make GET with request body's


```js
// only works in node / server -- i have not tried in the browser
const res = await axios.get("/api/devices", { 
  data: { deviceName: 'name' } 
}) 
```
