To address the issue, I think we need to do one of the following:
* State that the attack exists, and that QUIC stacks should implement mitigations.
* Introduce MAX_CONNECTION_IDS frame. The reason we do not have similar issue in stream concurrency control is because the credit is controlled by MAX_STREAMS frames, rather than using FIN (or reset) as an implicit signal to indicate availability of new credit. We could do the same for connection IDs.
