Motivation: In https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc7540#section-10.3 it says that only certain characters are valid in a header value: > Any request or response that contains a character not permitted > in a header field value MUST be treated as malformed (Section 8.1.2.6). > Valid characters are defined by the "field-content" ABNF rule in > Section 3.2 of [RFC7230]. Modification: Add a header value validation step to HpackDecoder. Result: Header values are now validated against the Section 10.3, etc. rules.

Motivation: netty#12755 added validation for presence of connection-related headers while `HpackDecoder` decodes the incoming frame. Then netty#12832 moved this validation from `HpackDecoder` to `DefaultHttp2Headers`. As the result, existing use-case that could use `DefaultHttp2Headers` for HTTP/2 and HTTP/1.X broke when users add any of the mentioned prohibited headers. The HTTP/1.X to HTTP/2 translation logic usually has sanitization process that removes connection-related headers. It's enough to run this validation only for incoming messages and we should preserve backward compatibility for 4.1. Modifications: - Move `isConnectionHeader` and `te` validations from `DefaultHttp2Headers` back to `HpackDecoder`; - Add tests to verify `HpackDecoder` fails incoming headers as expected; - Add tests to verify mentioned headers can be added to `DefaultHttp2Headers`; Result: Backward compatibility is preserved, while validation for connection-related headers is done in `HpackDecoder`.
