Reference to static table entry cannot use relative index

[dtikhonov]

QPACK Section 5.2.1 states:

The S bit indicates whether the reference is to the static (S=1) or dynamic (S=0) table. The header field name is represented using the relative index of that entry, which is represented as an integer with a 6-bit prefix (see Section 5.1 of [RFC7541]).

Relative indexes are defined in Section 2.2.1 only in the context of the dynamic table. The wording above is not clear how relative indexes are to be used with the static table.

Is the intent here to say that when S=0, relative index is used and when S=1, the index is the static entry's index?

Yes, that's the intent.

Fixed now that PR #1543 has been merged. Closing.
