What about:

<meta name="referrer" content="never">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="a.css">

...and the browser speculatively fetches the stylesheet before the
<meta> element is in the DOM? Should the speculative parser have
knowledge of <meta name=referrer>?

I would say it should handle this just like it handles <base> tags, whether that's through keeping track of it or through the speculation failing.

Yeah. Is there some precedent we should look to here? Perhaps the
<base> element?

Perhaps this should even be an attribute on <base> -- <base referrer="...">

Note that when you have multiple <base> tags only the _first_ takes effect, which is not the proposed behavior for <meta referrer>...
