Just checking that people are OK with this change.

Marten opened https://github.com/quicwg/base-drafts/pull/1610 which
proposes making the initial_max_data transport parameter optional.
Given that this can be set to 0 anyway, it isn't any more of a footgun
that we already have.  Absent objections, I plan to merge this.
