  (rfc8297) to Proposed Standard

Status Change Details:

RFC 8297, defining 103 Early Hints was published in 2017 by the HTTPBIS WG as
an experimental RFC. In the last couple of years, we have seen uptake and
deployment on client and server sides. In light of that, we propose that RFC
8297
gets promoted to Proposed Standard.
