Re: [whatwg/streams] Add support for ReadableStream "transfer" type (PR #1271)

Done.

Yes, I plan to do a separate PR for WritableStream.
And probably another for transform stream.

> I would like the two-argument form to work even when not using type: transfer as it is extremely useful in combination with transferable streams. 

I did not add this in this PR but it should be fairly easy to extend it as a follow-up.
I am a bit hesitant to do this at this point:
- Adding a transfer list would trigger cloning of the data (observable in non transferable streams case)
- ReadableStreamTee might fail with those transfer-only values.
- Adding `transfer:true` explicitly makes it clear that the web page opts into that behavior. It is not a big adoption step, filling the transferList is anyway needed.
