Sounds like you either want to 1) use multiple threads (one to do the
connect, and one to listen to Tor controller events and assign the stream
to the circuit) or to 2) make your connect non-blocking and then listen
to controller events and assign the stream to the circuit and then go
back to see if the connect() has finished.

I think the more usual approach is #1.

(There is no way to learn the streamid before starting the connect(),
since there is no stream, so Tor hasn't picked a number for it yet.)
