h2: Add a rate limit facility for h/2 RST handling
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This adds parameters h2_rst_allowance and h2_rst_allowance_period,
which govern the rate of which we allow clients to reset h/2 streams.

If the limit is exceeded the connection is closed.
