Re: [whatwg/streams] Editorial: account for removal of AbortSignal's follow (PR #1277)

Agreed, "must not" would be better. Only the Streams standard itself should signal abort.

However, since https://github.com/whatwg/dom/pull/1152 will make "to signal abort on an `AbortSignal`" private, it will no longer be possible for other specifications to affect this signal. So we can hopefully get rid of this entire footnote. 😁

By the way, should we already refactor Streams to use "to signal abort on an `AbortController`" instead? Or should we wait until https://github.com/whatwg/dom/pull/1152 has landed?
