This issue:

https://github.com/http2/http2-spec/issues/129

describes my concern that the polarity is reversed between STREAM FINAL
and HEADER CONTINUES which are both flag bits used to manage continuation.

I think this will introduce confusion to folks analyzing wire level bits
as well as reading code.

I do acknowledge the the current flag names match the sense of the 
polarity so the names probably should change.
