drpcstream,drpcwire: wire the receive-window grant policy into the read path

Install a per-stream recvWindow and drive it from the read/recv path:

  - HandleFrame intercepts an incoming KindWindowUpdate before the
    assembler and applies it to the send window. Intercepting early keeps
    a grant that interleaves with an in-progress message (grants are
    emitted off the write lock) from disturbing reassembly.
  - A dispatched KindMessage frame returns credit via recvWindow, emitting
    a KindWindowUpdate once the accrued amount crosses the threshold and
    the high-water gate is open.
  - RawRecv/MsgRecv call recvWindow after dequeuing; consuming can reopen a
    gate the high-water mark had closed and flush the accrued grant.

Grants are control frames, appended without blocking, so emitting them
from the reader goroutine is safe. The window is opt-in: with no recvw
installed no grants are emitted, and an incoming grant with no send
window is ignored, so default behavior is unchanged.

Stream-level only; the connection-level receive budget and the enablement
path that installs the windows come in later commits.

The packet assembler can silently drop an unfinished message when a
higher message id supersedes it (a legitimate sequence: a send preempted
mid-message, then a cancel). Those bytes were counted into the receive
window at dispatch and would inflate buffered forever, wedging the
high-water gate shut and deadlocking the sender once its credit ran
out. The assembler now records the drop (TakeDiscarded) and HandleFrame
releases the bytes as consumed, letting their credit flow back. The
release runs last (deferred past the replacement frame's accounting and
handlePacket), so the grant decision sees the final buffered state
rather than the transient dip, and a terminal packet that supersedes a
partial suppresses the grant via termination.

emitGrant is also a no-op once the stream has terminated: the ring
drains queued messages after close, and returning credit behind the
terminal frame would invite the peer to send more doomed data.
