Description

Malformed requests must be treated as a stream error, but currently it's treated as a connection error.

Malformed requests or responses that are detected MUST be treated as a stream error (Section 5.4.2) of type PROTOCOL_ERROR.

https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-httpbis-http2-17#section-8.1.2.6

I found this behavior with these requests:

• Uppercase header field names
• Empty :path header
