Related to this, I'm looking at this general area of code in relation
to PROXY and H2, and maybe we should simplify our timers differently.

Right now we have two timeouts:

timeout_idle - close idle connections after this long. [5 sec]

timeout_req - max time to collect req.hdrs (first->last byte) [2 sec].

In reality this is a pretty weird distinction, I'm not even sure how/why
we ended up with it.


Maybe we should instead have two different timeouts:

timeout_first - Time to receive first complete req.hdrs after accept.

timeout_idle - Time to receive subsequent complete req.hdrs after response.

Or maybe even just one:

timeout_idle - Time to receive complete req.hdrs
