net/http: add Server.MaxHeaderValueCount setting

Implement MaxHeaderValueCount support for both the HTTP/1 and HTTP/2
server. This allows servers who want to support large headers such as
SSO or OIDC cookies (and therefore has to set MaxHeaderBytes to a large
value), to still limit the number of headers that they are willing to
accept.

Also added the usual note for linknamed symbols for
net/textproto.readMIMEHeader, which seems to have been missed
originally.

Release note changes will be added directly in x/website.

For #79936
