Change interface for communicating outbound stream id to diameter_sctp
The module uses the transport_data field of record diameter_packet to
communicate the stream on which the an incoming message is received and
on which an outgoing message should be sent, the previous interface
being that both are communicated as a tuple of the form {stream, Id}.
However, since diameter retains the value of an incoming request's
transport_data unless the corresponding answer message specifies
otherwise, the behaviour in this case is to send an answer on the
outbound stream with the same identifier as the that of the inbound
stream on which the request was received. If the inbound stream id is
greater than or equal to the number of outbound streams then this is
guaranteed to fail, causing the transport process in question to
terminate. There is no relationship between inbound and outbound stream
identifiers so diameter_sctp's imposition of one is simply wrong.
Outbound stream ids are now communicated with a different tuple:
{outstream, Id}, interpreted modulo the number of outbound streams.
Thus, retention of an inbound request's transport_data has no effect on
the selection of an outbound stream.
The change in interface is not strictly backwards compatible because of
the new atom for the outbound stream. However, as there is currently no
documented way of obtaining the available number of outbound streams for
a peer connection, there is no way for a client to have known the range
of ids from which it could reliably have chosen with the previous
interface, so any setting of the outbound stream has probably been
unintentional. Not explicitly specifying an outbound stream now results
in a round-robin selection.
