New issue 133 by nux...@gmail.com: multiple IPv6 extension headers of the
same type aren't handled
https://code.google.com/p/dpkt/issues/detail?id=133

dpkt stores ipv6 extension headers in a way that only allows it to store
one extension header of each type.

While most of the headers may only appear once, the destination options
header is allowed to appear twice and dpkt will only keep the 2nd copy when
parsing a packet. In general it would be nice if invalid packets containing
multiple instances of any of the options was parsed too.
