Re: [w3c/ServiceWorker] consider adding a note that response body may be re-buffered in browser (#1573)

Hey there,
I am the reporter for https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1188114

I was wondering if [Transferable Streams](https://github.com/whatwg/streams/blob/main/transferable-streams-explainer.md) ([chrome support](https://chromestatus.com/feature/5298733486964736)) could allow service workers to pass data directly to the target frame without getting re-buffered with a fixed size.

Passing a stream from a service worker to a webpage via transferable streams(using `postMessage`) actually do work as expected and send the entire, full sized buffer (in my test case, `Uint8Array(1000000)`).

So since the tech is already there(at least for chrome), i was wondering if it'd just be possible to use it for fetch's respondWith and get the correct behavior.
