http2: fix excessive CPU usage when using allowHTTP1=true #52713

In Node v20.12 a new feature was added for HTTP2 servers to close idle connections when allowHTTP1 is true. The implementation mirrors HTTP1 server behavior and leans on setupConnectionsTracking. setupConnectionsTracking works by calling setInterval using the this.connectionsCheckingInterval value which does not exist on Http2SecureServer. Therefore, undefined is passed to setInterval, which leads to checkConnections being called on every tick. This creates a significant additional load on the server CPU. The fix is to define this.connectionsCheckingInterval on the Http2SecureServer instance.

We run 10-20 app instances per server, and our CPU usage increased by ~20% when upgrading from v20.11.1 to v20.12.0 due to this issue.

When Http2SecureServer is configured with `allowHTTP1=true`, it calls
`setupConnectionsTracking` to start monitoring for idle HTTP1
connections. `setupConnectionsTracking` expects to have
`this.connectionsCheckingInterval` property defined, but it does not
exist on `Http2SecureServer`. This `undefined` value is passed to
`setInterval`, which results in `checkConnections` being called on
every tick, creating significant additional load on the server CPU.
The fix is to define `this.connectionsCheckingInterval` on the
Http2SecureServer instance.
