Unable to send request with body larger than 64Kb #265

Hi,

I am not totally sure if this is a bug but I found a stranged behaviour in Req when I'm sending a body larger than 64Kb and it seems to be related to Finch protocols option.

It seems a change in the protocols provides different behaviours:

With protocols: [:http1]:

iex(1)> {:ok, pid} = Finch.start_link(name: MyFinch, pools: %{ default: [ protocols: [:http1] ] })
{:ok, #PID<0.648.0>}
iex(2)> Finch.build(:post, "https://nghttp2.org/httpbin/post", [], :crypto.strong_rand_bytes(65538)) |> Finch.request(MyFinch)
{:ok,
 %Finch.Response{
   status: 200,
   body: "{\n  \"args\": {}, \n  \"data\": \"data:application/octet-stream;base64,TRUNCATED",
   headers: [
     {"date", "Tue, 20 Feb 2024 18:31:19 GMT"},
     {"content-type", "application/json"},
     {"content-length", "87690"},
     {"access-control-allow-origin", "*"},
     {"access-control-allow-credentials", "true"},
     {"x-backend-header-rtt", "0.156761"},
     {"strict-transport-security", "max-age=31536000"},
     {"connection", "close"},
     {"alt-svc", "h3=\":443\"; ma=3600, h3-29=\":443\"; ma=3600"},
     {"server", "nghttpx"},
     {"via", "1.1 nghttpx"},
     {"x-frame-options", "SAMEORIGIN"},
     {"x-xss-protection", "1; mode=block"},
     {"x-content-type-options", "nosniff"}
   ],
   trailers: []
 }}

With protocols: [:http2]:

iex(1)> {:ok, pid} = Finch.start_link(name: MyFinch, pools: %{ default: [ protocols: [:http2] ] })
{:ok, #PID<0.648.0>}
iex(2)> Finch.build(:post, "https://nghttp2.org/httpbin/post", [], :crypto.strong_rand_bytes(65538)) |> Finch.request(MyFinch)
{:ok,
 %Finch.Response{
   status: 200,
   body: "{\n  \"args\": {}, \n  \"data\": \"data:application/octet-stream;base64,TRUNCATED",
   headers: [
     {"date", "Tue, 20 Feb 2024 18:27:43 GMT"},
     {"content-type", "application/json"},
     {"content-length", "87695"},
     {"access-control-allow-origin", "*"},
     {"access-control-allow-credentials", "true"},
     {"x-backend-header-rtt", "0.508807"},
     {"strict-transport-security", "max-age=31536000"},
     {"server", "nghttpx"},
     {"alt-svc", "h3=\":443\"; ma=3600, h3-29=\":443\"; ma=3600"},
     {"via", "1.1 nghttpx"},
     {"x-frame-options", "SAMEORIGIN"},
     {"x-xss-protection", "1; mode=block"},
     {"x-content-type-options", "nosniff"}
   ],
   trailers: []
 }}

With protocols: [:http1, :http2]:

iex(1)> {:ok, pid} = Finch.start_link(name: MyFinch, pools: %{ default: [ protocols: [:http1, :http2] ] })
{:ok, #PID<0.648.0>}
iex(2)> Finch.build(:post, "https://nghttp2.org/httpbin/post", [], :crypto.strong_rand_bytes(65538)) |> Finch.request(MyFinch)
{:error,
 %Mint.HTTPError{
   reason: {:exceeds_window_size, :request, 65535},
   module: Mint.HTTP2
 }}

Is it related to the lack of multiplexing when :http1 is provided?
