 Yes, at the moment, `transportname` is supposed to be the unique
 identifier of a pluggable transport used by a bridge.

 That is, if a bridge publishes more than one `transport` lines with the
 same `transportname`, it is either evil or a future version of tor where
 we have decided that this should be allowed (I don't see this happening
 atm).
