    Fix bug that ignored VERSIONS cell link_protocol when packing
    
    The link_protocol was hardcoded to 2 within pack() for VERSIONS but the
    spec explicitly states "To be interpreted correctly, later VERSIONS
    cells MUST have a CIRCID_LEN matching the version negotiated with the
    first VERSIONS cell." (section 4.1).
    
    So while the use of VERSIONS cells after the negotiation is not
    expected, stem.client still needs to pack them correctly in case it is
    leveraged to test this property in any tor implementation.
    
    The use of link_protocol 2 to set the CIRCID_LEN appropriately has moved
    instead to stem.client.Relay, for sending the first VERSIONS cell.
