Moses Nakamura d976dc108d codec-http2: Improve h1 to h2 header conversion
Motivation:

Netty could handle "connection" or "te" headers more gently when
converting from http/1.1 to http/2 headers.  Http/2 headers don't
support single-hop headers, so when we convert from http/1.1 to http/2,
we should drop all single-hop headers.  This includes headers like
"transfer-encoding" and "connection", but also the headers that
"connection" points to, since "connection" can be used to designate
other headers as single-hop headers.  For the "te" header, we can more
permissively convert it by just dropping non-conforming headers (ie
non-"trailers" headers) which is what we do for all other headers when
we convert.

Modifications:

Add a new blacklist to the http/1.1 to http/2 conversion, which is
constructed from the values of the "connection" header, and stop
throwing an exception when a "te" header is passed with a non-"trailers"
value.  Instead, drop all values except for "trailers".  Add unit tests
for "connection" and "te" headers when converting from http/1.1 to http/2.

Result:

This will improve the h2c upgrade request, and also conversions from
http/1.1 to http/2.  This will simplify implementing spec-compliant
http/2 servers that want to share code between their http/1.1 and http/2
implementations.

[Fixes #7355]

Netty Project

Netty is an asynchronous event-driven network application framework for rapid development of maintainable high performance protocol servers & clients.

How to build

For the detailed information about building and developing Netty, please visit the developer guide. This page only gives very basic information.

You require the following to build Netty:

Note that this is build-time requirement. JDK 5 (for 3.x) or 6 (for 4.0+) is enough to run your Netty-based application.

Branches to look

Development of all versions takes place in each branch whose name is identical to <majorVersion>.<minorVersion>. For example, the development of 3.9 and 4.0 resides in the branch '3.9' and the branch '4.0' respectively.
