Re: Next pre-draft implementation in javascript.

The indexed representation part of the spec is changed in 04.
It mandates that one (attempt to) append the entry from the static table to
the header table after emitting it.
If that fails, then there is no reference left in the reference set.
If it succeeds, a reference to the header table entry is added.

Essentially, this change implies that the only things that can be in the
reference set are those in the header table.
Things in the static table cannot be in the reference set-.
