PipeToSendStream used to call `reserve_capacity(1)` at the top of every poll iteration as a probe, before asking the body for the next chunk. The reservation is immediately assigned from the connection-level flow-control window, and while the stream is parked waiting for more body data the reservation keeps the last byte of the connection window pinned to the stream. Against peers that only emit a WINDOW_UPDATE once their receive window is fully exhausted (for example Bun's built-in HTTP/2 server, as well as other implementations with a similar strategy), this one-byte reservation is enough to deadlock a second concurrent stream: the connection window never drops to zero on the peer, so no WINDOW_UPDATE is ever sent, and the second stream can never get any capacity. Restructure the loop so it polls the body for the next frame first and only reserves capacity equal to the chunk's exact size. The polled chunk is stashed in a new `buffered_data` field so it survives the `poll_capacity` wait across `Poll::Pending` returns without being dropped. Zero-length data frames are forwarded immediately without touching the reservation. `poll_reset` is now registered at the top of every iteration so RST_STREAM still wakes the task while it waits for either more body data or more capacity. Add a regression test that pairs a streaming request filling the connection window with a second one-byte request, talking to a raw h2::server that never releases recv capacity, and asserts the second request reaches the server.
