Another approach would be to subsume it in the 4 bytes of digest. For
each relay cell, we could try adding it to our hop-digest, and if it
matches then we keep it.

But I think that level of sneakiness would come back to bite us later
on. Let's do it the obvious way.

Having heard no complaints, I'm going to start adding this.
