Christopher Faulet 1b4255a885 BUG/MEDIUM: channel: Fix condition to know if a channel may send
Historically, we considered a channel cannot send before the connection was
established. This was useful to know if the reserve should still be
respected for the receives. This was because it was possible to rewrite the
request on connection retry (because of http-send-name-header option).

However noadays, it is a useless limitation. Once data forwarding is
started, there is no longer rewrites on the request at the stream layer
(http-send-name-header option is handled by the muxes). And, since it is
possible to use small buffers to queue requests, it could be an issue,
because the reserve and the small buffer size are the same by default. Once
a small request was finally dequeued, the receives on client side were not
re-armed because we should still respect the reserve on receives
(channel_recv_limit() was returning 0 in that case).

To fix the issue, we must consider a channel may send since the underlying
stconn has reached the SC_ST_REQ state, instead of SC_ST_EST. Doing so, we
are able to ignore the reserve earlier and the receives can be re-armed even
with small buffers.

There is no reason to backport this patch, except if an issue is reported,
because only the 3.4 is concerned. But it could theorically be backported to
all stable versions.
