Re: h2 use of Upgrade

Not in the ALPN-based connectivity case, at least, implying different
codepaths (and a required increase in verbosity near the start of the
communication) for upgrade vs ALPN-based negotiation.

Not specifying the ALPN token is also different in the upgrade case as the
ALPN token might indicate more information in the future about what
extensions are available, etc. which isn't something conveyed by settings
alone.
For anyone wishing to have equivalent functionality/latency for upgrade as
with ALPN or its future replacements, it would be good to offer the ALPN
token in there somewhere.
