Title: Upgrading to HTTP/2 draft 14 framing

Motivation:

HTTP/2 draft 14 came out a couple of weeks ago and we need to keep up
with the spec.

Modifications:

- Removed use of segment throughout.
- Added new setting for MAX_FRAME_SIZE. Used by the frame reader/writer
rather than a constant.
- Added new setting for MAX_HEADER_LIST_SIZE. This is currently unused.
- Expanded the header size to 9 bytes. The frame length field is now 3
bytes and added logic for checking that it falls within the valid range.

Result:

Netty will support HTTP/2 draft 14 framing. There will still be some
work to do to be compliant with the HTTP adaptation layer.
