Re: [whatwg/fetch] Uploading a Request made from a ReadableStream body (#425)

Sorry for the long silence. 

We, Chrome, did try to prove that this feature is useful, with gRPC/web. But gRPC/web lost its interest to this feature, given we now have WebTransport. As a result, I'm not confident that I can persuade Chromium API owners to ship this feature, given the spec/impl complexity needed for this feature.

FWIW gRPC/web was the only web developer who wanted to use this feature with HTTP/1.1, so I believe we all are now happy to drop the support of this feature on HTTP/1.1.

We have two paths forward:

 1. Get more support from other browser vendors and web developers, and ship this feature.
 2. Give up this feature and remove the logic from the spec.

Thoughts?
