http2: close connections when receiving too many headers

Maintaining HPACK state requires that we parse and process
all HEADERS and CONTINUATION frames on a connection.
When a request's headers exceed MaxHeaderBytes, we don't
allocate memory to store the excess headers but we do
parse them. This permits an attacker to cause an HTTP/2
endpoint to read arbitrary amounts of data, all associated
with a request which is going to be rejected.

Set a limit on the amount of excess header frames we
will process before closing a connection.

Thanks to Bartek Nowotarski for reporting this issue.
