 *
 *   where:
 *
 *   o  Next Header: 8-bit selector.  Identifies the type of header
 *      immediately following the SRH.
 *
 *   o  Hdr Ext Len: 8-bit unsigned integer, is the length of the SRH
 *      header in 8-octet units, not including the first 8 octets.
 *
 *   o  Routing Type: TBD, to be assigned by IANA (suggested value: 4).
 *
 *   o  Segments Left.  Defined in [RFC8200], it contains the index, in
 *      the Segment List, of the next segment to inspect.  Segments Left
 *      is decremented at each segment.
 *
 *   o  Last Entry: contains the index (zero based), in the Segment List,
 *      of the the last element of the Segment List
 *
 *   o  Flags: 8 bits of flags.  Following flags are defined:
 *
 *         0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
 *        +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
 *        |U|P|O|A|H|  U  |
 *        +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
 *
 *        U: Unused and for future use.  SHOULD be unset on transmission
 *        and MUST be ignored on receipt.
 *
 *        P-flag: Protected flag.  Set when the packet has been rerouted
 *        through FRR mechanism by an SR endpoint node.
 *
 *        O-flag: OAM flag.  When set, it indicates that this packet is
 *        an operations and management (OAM) packet.
 *
 *        A-flag: Alert flag.  If present, it means important Type Length
 *        Value (TLV) objects are present.  See Section 3.1 for details
 *        on TLVs objects.
 *
 *        H-flag: HMAC flag.  If set, the HMAC TLV is present and is
 *        encoded as the last TLV of the SRH.  In other words, the last
 *        36 octets of the SRH represent the HMAC information.  See
 *        Section 3.1.5 for details on the HMAC TLV.
 *
 *   o  Tag: tag a packet as part of a class or group of packets, e.g.,
 *      packets sharing the same set of properties. When tag is not used
 *      at source it MUST be set to zero on transmission. When tag is not
 *      used during SRH Processing it SHOULD be ignored.
 *
 *   o  Segment List[n]: 128 bit IPv6 addresses representing the nth
 *      segment in the Segment List.  The Segment List is encoded starting
 *      from the last segment of the path.  I.e., the first element of the
 *      segment list (Segment List [0]) contains the last segment of the
 *      path while the last segment of the Segment List (Segment List[n])
 *      contains the first segment of the path.  The index contained in
 *      "Segments Left" identifies the current active segment.
 *
 *   o  Type Length Value (TLV) are described in Section 3.1.
