リ	=> PSID and SSID should be removed from the command_block


At LA meeting, we agreed to remove PSID and SSID from CDB of normal
command block ORB. However, now I would like to suggest to enclose
1284.4 supportive flag and 6 bytes 1284.4 packet header in CDB.


The reason is outlined below.
1)	IEEE 1284.4 is providing "out-of-band packet control flag" in the 
header
for 1284.4 packets.
2)	However if we does not enclose any 1284.4 information in normal 
command
block ORB. Fetch Agent needs to examine buffered data that wad 
fetched
after the fetch agent processed the ORB.
3)	Basically, out-of-band packet shall be extracted as soon as 
possible.
4)	Thus we would like to make short cut to detect out-of-band requests 
without
reading buffer space associated with each ORB.
