Browsers take a server advertising extended CONNECT as support for WebSockets over HTTP/2, which fails when the server's WebSocket handling does not support it. Go disabled it by default for this reason.

Port golang.org/x/net/http2 0a5dcdd8 (CL 641475, golang/go#71128): extended CONNECT is off unless GODEBUG contains http2xconnect=1. Also port the check from 9a518991 (CL 610977) that a535bcd left out: while it is off, the server rejects requests that use :protocol.
