Complementary PR to whatwg/fetch#1232
While implementing the recent Resource Timing transferSize changes, I realized that the current spec is not sufficient to implement what was discussed in the WG, and more importantly, insufficient to maintain backwards compatibility with current transferSize values.
Essentially, we want transferSize to return different values for the cases of local caching (in which case it needs to return 0), full fetch from the network (in which case it needs to return the encoded body size + a constant) as well as the successful revalidation case (where it needs to return just the constant representing the headers used to revalidate the response).
