Comment(by andrea):

 Destroy cells should go in a queue rather than always skipping to the head
 of the line.  Probably the easiest option here is to pretend we have a
 special virtual circuit for all 'control' cells like DESTROY on a channel,
 and schedule it with circuitmux like the other circuits.  Another
 possibility would be to schedule the cells for the circuit they affect;
 not sure if forcing a DESTROY to wait behind any data we have for that
 circuit would change semantics in a problematic way.
