Subject: [quicwg/base-drafts] Memory commitment for header parsing (#238)

From: Martin Thomson <[email-masked]>

Parsing all possible header blocks could require a significant number of header parsers operating concurrently.  Since headers tend to be delivered as a single package to applications, that means that the parsers need sufficient space to hold all the partially complete data.

This can be addressed by only reading from the streams that an endpoint is able to, but that increases complexity and exposure to head-of-line blocking.

This cleaves off the second part of #204.
