Descripción
### Is your feature request related to a problem?
While trying to work with TLS, I was scanning through the current server setup. The NettyServerBuilder configures the port to be TLS or plaintext based on the presence or absence of `SslContext`, correspondingly.
https://github.com/grpc/grpc-java/blob/012dbaf5be3fb0d532d977d288a0e42a58f30a7c/netty/src/main/java/io/grpc/netty/NettyServerBuilder.java#L352-L364
Resulting in a very little flexibility for the users to customize the port. Specifically, I was trying to see if we can accept both TLS & non-TLS connections on the same port without the need for creating a duplicate port. Netty demonstrates this through the [doc](https://netty.io/4.1/xref/io/netty/example/portunification/PortUnificationServerHandler.html#PortUnificationServerHandler).
### Describe the solution you'd like
**Approach1**
Explicit public interface in `NettyServerBuilder` for enabling/disabling/multiplexing TLS.
We could follow a [similar approach](https://netty.io/4.1/xref/io/netty/example/portunification/PortUnificationServerHandler.html#PortUnificationServerHandler) of spiffing the initial bytes & dynamically configuring TLS.
**Approach2**
A public interface for adding child handlers to customize the connections.
https://github.com/grpc/grpc-java/blob/012dbaf5be3fb0d532d977d288a0e42a58f30a7c/netty/src/main/java/io/grpc/netty/NettyServer.java#L228

Guía de contribución
Línea de trabajo
Start with NettyServerBuilder.java at the TLS/plaintext configuration around lines 352-364, then inspect NettyServer.java around line 228 and the linked Netty PortUnificationServerHandler example. Compare the two proposed public interfaces and define how one port should accept both TLS and non-TLS connections without requiring a duplicate port.
