Description

Related to https://github.com/envoyproxy/envoy/issues/5173. I've been thinking about this, and I think we should consider having default TCP keep alive settings for xDS connections, with maybe an option to fully disable if it's not wanted.

I think this issue is going to hit almost everyone and we can have a better OOB experience.

Thoughts @suhailpatel @htuch @fredlas?
