>>   Per [RFC 9113 §5.4.1](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9113.html#section-5.4.1), a GOAWAY frame with a non-zero error code indicates a connection error requiring immediate closure. This fix:

>>      - Streams with ID ≤ `lastStreamId`: Failed with detailed error information

>>     - Properly categorizes streams for retry or failure
>> 
>>   **Test Infrastructure**:
>>   - `Http2TestServerConnection.sendGoAway(int, int, byte[])`: Supports custom error codes
>>   - `Http2TestExchangeImpl.getServerConnection()`: Accessor for test handlers
>>   - `GoAwayWithErrorTest`: Verifies proper error propagation
>> 
>>   ### Example
>> 
>>   **Before:**
>>   IOException: Connection closed by peer
>> 
>>   **After:**
>>   IOException: Received GOAWAY with error code Protocol error (0x1): Invalid HEADERS frame
>> 
>>   ### Testing
>> 
>>   - New `GoAwayWithErrorTest` passes
>>   - Existing HTTP/2 tests unaffected (NO_ERROR path unchanged)
>>   - Backward compatible (no public API changes)
