Re: Alissa Cooper's Yes on draft-ietf-httpbis-http2-16: (with COMMENT)

Here is a PR for a reset state:
https://github.com/http2/http2-spec/pull/700/files?diff=split

All the conditional behaviour within the close state indicates that it is
really multiple states, so this pull request moves the conditional
behaviour to the new "reset" state.  Then rather than use "a short period"
to end the conditional behaviour, I have made the RST_STREAM be
acknowledged so we don't have to guess when the peer has seen the reset.
