[whatwg/fetch] Editorial: Use controller for redirect navigation (PR #1469)

Remove the existing navigation redirect, and allow the caller
to use the controller to continue to the next redirect.

This simplifies the navigation HTML<->FETCH flow, as now there is
a single `fetch params` struct for the course of the entire navigation.
Up until now some data from fetch params would be lost, like timing info
and task desination, because navigation fetches create a brand new
`fetch params` struct. Now that data is retained, and the only thing that
HTML needs to do is call `process the next redirect` on the fetch controller.
