Re: [w3c/ServiceWorker] The return value for update() is wrong in WebIDL (#1472)

No, I think the `update algorithm` does not say that it returns the job. It just says what is done with the job and then that the `promise` is returned. Nothing is said what is in this promise which means for me it is `void`. So it was correct imo!
