802.1X "canned" messages are encapsulated EAP packets.  So an 802.1X
packet containing an EAP Success is expressly forbidden under RFC 3748,
even though I think it is still mentioned in IEEE 802.1X-2004.  Similarly,
our discussion of whether "canned" EAP Failure is illegal also applies to
"canned" 802.1X packets.
