`h2` returns `RST_STREAM` frames with the `PROTOCOL_ERROR` bit set as a response to many types of errors in client requests. Many of those cases, when handled by an HTTP/1 server such as the one used in `hyper`, would result in an HTTP 400 Bad Request response returned to the client rather than a TCP reset (the HTTP/1 equivalent of a `RST_STREAM`). As a consequence, a client will observe differences in behaviour between HTTP/1 and HTTP/2: a malformed request will result in a 400 response when HTTP/1 is used whereas the same request will result in a reset stream with `h2`. Make `h2` reply a `HEADERS`+`400`+`END_STREAM` frame followed by a `RST_STREAM`+`PROTOCOL_ERROR` frame to all the `malformed!()` macro invocations in `Peer::convert_poll_message()` in `src/server.rs`. The `Reset` variant in the `h2::proto::error::Error` Enum now contains an `Option<http::StatusCode>` value that is set by the `malformed!()` macro with a `Some(400)`. That value is propagated all the way until `h2::proto::streams::send::Send::send_reset()` where, if not `None`, a `h2::frame::headers::Headers` frame with the status code and the `END_STREAM` flag set will now be sent to the client before the `RST_STREAM` frame. Some of the parameters passed to `send_reset()` have been grouped into a new `SendResetContext` Struct in order to avoid a `clippy::too_many_arguments` lint. Tests where malformed requests were sent have been updated to check that an additional `HEADERS`+`400`+`END_STREAM` frame is now received before the `RST_STREAM + PROTOCOL_ERROR` frame. This change has been validated with other clients like `curl`, a custom ad-hoc client written with `python3+httpx` and `varnishtest`.
