[aprssig] Question about 'H-bit' handling and WIDEn-N paths

When writing code for a digi, I suspect the digi should ignore any path component that has the H-bit set, else two digis could bounce a packet around forever.

Now, if a digi is to convert a path from WIDE3-3 to WIDE3-2, does it set or (leave) clear the H-bit?

p.s. I'm relatively new at AX.25 so I could be WAY off base here.
