Platforms Affected

Current Behavior

Sending fetch request with Request object as a parameter does not set data for request. This makes Capacitor HTTP incompatible with popular ky library.

request = new Request("http://192.168.1.11:3000/clients/auth/verification_code", { method: "POST" })
request.headers.set("Content-Type", "application/json")
request.body = JSON.stringify({"phone": "1234567890"}) // <-- this is ignored
await fetch(request)

Expected Behavior

Expect passing Request to fetch parameter to send body of request object

Project Reproduction

none, can be reproduced without a repo

WurstMitBrot, since you say it's a similar issue, but might not be the same problem, can you create a separate issue for your problem?

It looks like this issue didn't get the information it needed, so I'll close it for now. If I made a mistake, sorry! I am just a bot.

Have a great day!
