Willy Tarreau 6770259083 MEDIUM: mux-h2: allow to set the glitches threshold to kill a connection
Till now it was still needed to write rules to eliminate bad behaving
H2 clients, while most of the time it would be desirable to just be able
to set a threshold on the level of anomalies on a connection.

This is what this patch does. By setting a glitches threshold for frontend
and backend, it allows to automatically turn a connection to the error
state when the threshold is reached so that the connection dies by itself
without having to write possibly complex rules.

One subtlety is that we still have the error state being exclusive to the
parser's state so this requires the h2c_report_glitches() function to return
a status indicating if the threshold was reached or not so that processing
can instantly stop and bypass the state update, otherwise the state could
be turned back to a valid one (e.g. after parsing CONTINUATION); we should
really contemplate the possibility to use H2_CF_ERROR for this. Fortunately
there were very few places where a glitch was reported outside of an error
path so the changes are quite minor.

Now by setting the front value to 1000, a client flooding with short
CONTINUATION frames is instantly stopped.
