HTTP_WRONG_SETTING_DIRECTION presently applies to exactly one case, a client that sends NUM_PLACEHOLDERS. Declassifying this as an error seems like a sensible option. This frees up error code 0x1, which we can move HTTP_GENERAL_PROTOCOL_ERROR to (making HTTP/3 more similar to HTTP/2).

My preference is to state that servers MUST ignore this value if present. I'll prepare a PR to that effect.
