This seems a bit at odd with our design principles, since it requires the HTTP/3 implementation to understand the QUIC Stream ID numbering scheme.   In our implementation that's viable and it probably is in others.  The current text says:
  "A client MUST treat receipt of a GOAWAY
   frame containing a Stream ID of any other type as a connection error
   of type H3_ID_ERROR."

I don't remember us discussing this particular detail of GOAWAY in Cupertino, but I also wasn't very invested in the GOAWAY discussion, so I believe I missed it.

To be clear, the Request ID -> Stream ID mapping is multiplying by 4 in this case.  There is no state required.

TLDR: This seems weird, but I'm ok with closing with no action if others don't care to fix the oddity.
