Bug 162892 – [Fetch API] Use ReadableStream pull to transfer binary data to stream when application needs it

• Component: WebCore Misc.
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[youenn fablet]

When stream is not pulling data, it might be best to just store it in WebCore.
If there is a need for it, knowing how much data is stored in WebCore could allow us to request the network process to stop sending us data until we actually need it.

This has two call sites, one of which checks m_readableStreamSource right before calling.  Would it hurt anything to move the check to here?

Should we assert m_readableStreamSource at the beginning of this function, or just if body.consumer.hasData?

Yeah, not sure whether this is assert is all that useful.

This assert is just there in case we use closeStream() somewhere else in the future.
It does not hurt to have it and might help future debugging.
That said, closeStream() is a private method.

Right, I'll add an assert at the beginning of this function.
