In Chromium browsers, the use of HTTP/3 continues even after Shift-reloads (a.k.a forced refresh) or Ctrl/Control+F5

Unfortunately Firefox clears all alt-svc mappings and will not even use HTTP/3 again after shift reload, and then even normal reload does not work.

I guess Firefox needs to change this behaviour because HTTP/3 will no longer be a draft in the future and alt-svc mappings need to be consistent.

Dragana, what do you think?
Thanks.

AltSvc mapping is cleared and if we do not clear the coalescing mapping it may happen that AltSvc cannot be validated because an alternative connection using DNS mapping already exists.

We clear AltSvc mapping because hard-refresh is a sign of a problem loading a page and we should start fresh, that should mean for the coalescing hashmap as well.
