Past experience indicates if we don't use joints, they will not work, both
internal(ie: SETTINGS) and external ones.
It also indicates that middleboxes will want to identify QUIC.  I'm happy
to sacrifice the invariants and QUIC bit for that purpose.

I have seen no evidence that if we continue using multiple versions in
production, future version numbers with the same invariants won't work.
Google is starting to deploy the 4th public header format in the last 2
years(current IETF invariants).  These public header changes require more
outreach, but even they are still possible.
