http2: custom priority for push streams

Rodrigo Muino Tomonari requested to merge github/fork/sebdeckers/push-stream-priority into master

Sets the priority silently on push streams. Previously the weight options, whilst documented, was simply ignored.

Note that the client is not informed of the non-default priority. The nghttp2 library ignores push stream flags (e.g. 0x20 for priority). It also currently offers no way to set priority value during push stream creation. This appears to be by design, as discussed here:
