[webrtc-pc] Pull Request: Data channel receive procedure

lgrahl has just submitted a new pull request for https://github.com/w3c/webrtc-pc:

== Data channel receive procedure ==
This adds steps for receiving a data channel message. Also clarifies that messages can only be received as long as `.readyState` is `open`.

Since implications on the closing procedure aren't trivial, here's an explanation:

1. Let peers A and B have a common data channel
2. B sends data in a tight loop.
3. A enqueues data to send and then closes the channel (which will enqueue to send an outgoing stream reset after all messages have been delivered). A's channel is now in the `closing` state.
    - **Important:** A cannot receive any more messages from B at this point! All incoming data from B will be discarded.
4. B's channel is still in the `open` state until it has received all messages that have been queued by A.
5. After having received all messages by A, B's channel will move into the `closing` state (due to having received an incoming stream reset and acknowledging it). B is allowed to discard any pending outgoing messages (if possible) and will send an outgoing stream reset.
6. A's channel will move into the `closed` state (due to having received acknowledgement for its outgoing stream reset and received an incoming stream reset).
7. B's channel will move into the `closed` state (due to having received acknowledgement for its outgoing stream reset).

Tests for *enqueue messages and close* exist as part of https://github.com/w3c/web-platform-tests/pull/10468.
