Currently, when a JS Http2Session object is created, we have
to handle the situation in which the native object corresponding
to it does not yet exist. As part of that, we create a typed array
for storing options that are passed through the `AliasedStruct`
mechanism, and up until now, we copied that typed array over
the native one once the native one was available.

This was not good, because it was overwriting the defaults that
were set during construction of the native typed array with zeroes.

In order to fix this, create a wrapper for the JS-created typed array
that keeps track of which fields were changed, which enables us to
only overwrite fields that were intentionally changed on the JS side.

It is surprising that this behavior was not tested (which is,
guessing from the commit history around these features, my fault).
The subseqeuent commit introduces a test that would fail without
this change.

Use the existing mechanism that we have to keep track of invalid frames
for treating this specific kind of invalid frame.

The commit that originally introduced this check was 695e38b,
which was supposed to proected against CVE-2019-9518, which in turn
was specifically about a *flood* of empty data frames. While these are
still invalid frames either way, it makes sense to be forgiving here
and just treat them like other invalid frames, i.e. to allow a small
(configurable) number of them.
