(stream_id_included<<15) | (relay_command << 9) | (relay_data_len).
Where everything is big-endian, both at the byte and bit level? (Is that specified at some higher level in the specs? I forget.)
If the optional_stream_id field is not present, then the default value for the stream_id is computed as follows. We use stream_id 0 for any command that doesn't take a stream ID. For commands that _do_ take a steam_id, we use whichever nonzero stream_id appeared last in this cell.
Do you mean "last in this cell" as in "the one closest to the end of the cell" or as in "the one that appeared closest to, but before, this relay command header"?
