RFC 9113 - HTTP/2, details the behavior of any client in these situations. Small changes and new test cases are needed to verify compliance with this specification. This issue primarily concerns how the client reacts to receiving a `RST_STREAM` frame at various stages of a partial/informational response from a server.

Previously it would be ignored only if an `END_STREAM` flag was seen which caused cancelled partial responses to 'hang' indefinitely should a client be transmitting data in a POST/PUT request. Some changes where also made to the `schedule()` method in Stream (L190) to ensure both the sending of the Request Body and receipt of a RST_STREAM at various stages of an exchange do not cause unexpected behavior.

At the moment, I don't believe this is safe to commit. I'm seeing a very rare test timeout that could cause issues down the line. Specifically when the client hits the `/resetStreamAfter200NoError` URI, meaning that this failure is probably possible in the following `/resetStreamAfter200Error` case also. I'll be working to address this issue in due course.
I will also, in the same changeset, remove extraneous whitespace as highlighted and make a few stylistic updates (some of the variable names in tests are unnecessarily long, test data has unused parameters etc.)
