Description
It's useful to signal to the peer that you have stopped reading on a stream. This only resets the read half of the stream.
QUIC has STOP_SENDING frame for this: https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9000.html#name-stop_sending-frames
We can consider adding something similar for yamux.

Research direction
Start with the linked RFC 9000 STOP_SENDING section and compare its stated read-half behavior with the yamux specification. Define whether yamux should add an analogous frame and document its semantics and interoperability requirements; the issue is done when the proposal is concrete and reviewable.
