[whatwg] An alternative approach to section 9 of Mime Sniffing

explain whether another change to make section 9 more readable is 
appropriate
(though it currently is relatively readable as is).

The only reason Fetch uses ABNF is to match HTTP(-bis) conventions.
It's not a practice I recommend copying for non-header value
definitions.
