Re: [whatwg/fetch] Proposal: Support GET bodies (#83)

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
```
This isn't surprising to me as I've run into it in the past; plus also read thread above.

### Workaround for Nodejs runtime (_not in browser ... JS on the server_)
Unfortunately the API I'm working with I cannot change at this time so I needed a work around.
You can use the [axios library](https://www.npmjs.com/package/axios) to make GET with request body.

```js
// only works in node
const res = await axios.get("/api/devices", { 
  data: { deviceName: 'name' } 
}) 
```
