streams: fix cloned webstreams not being unref'd

When cloning a `ReadableStream` and `WritableStream`, both use an
internal `MessageChannel` to communicate with the original stream.
Those, however, previously were not unref'd which would lead to the
process not exiting if the stream was not fully consumed.

Fixes: #44985
