Thanks for catching this, this is an obvious error on my part. In fact,
I'd go as far as saying that in the commit where this was defined,
b0df0c16 (stateless-connect: send response end packet, 2020-05-19), I
erroneously called it a "Message Packet" when I meant to type "Response
End Packet", which you are now correcting.

A couple of aesthetic details: I see that these changes are based on MR
!1922 so if you decide to take these suggestions, you'll probably need
to apply them there too.

	1. It'd probably read better as "Response End Packet" (with the
	   "e" capitalised)

	2. The mix of underscore and hyphen in response_end-pkt is a
	   little odd, although I see that you've done it to make it
	   match the surrounding code[3].

I think that I'd prefer if 1. is taken and 2. can be ignored. But with
or without those changes, consider this patch

Thanks,
Denton
