 This happens when you try to attachstream a stream that isn't in a state
 where we think you should be able to do so. For example, if you try to
 attachstream an open stream, it should fail.

 That said, there may be a bug here: the 'if' I just quoted doesn't
 consider AP_CONN_STATE_CIRCUIT_WAIT. That is, you can't ask to
 attachstream a stream that is waiting for Tor to produce a suitable
 circuit. That is probably because we assumed an implicit invariant that
 there *is* no acceptable circuit for a stream in this state (if there were
 one, the stream wouldn't still be in this state). But a) we might be
 wrong, and b) why constrain controllers?
