If you're making changes here, would you mind summarizing what I wrote in #1854 regarding how to ensure a stream doesn't leak a goroutine? Something like:

// To ensure resources are not leaked due to the stream returned, one of the following
// actions must be performed:
//
// 1. call Close on the ClientConn,
// 2. cancel the context provided,
// 3. call RecvMsg until a non-nil error is returned, or
// 4. receive a non-nil error from Header or SendMsg besides io.EOF.
//
// If none of the above happen, a goroutine and a context will be leaked, and grpc
// will not call the optionally-configured stats handler with a stats.End message.
