    Verify that if the index.to field is non-zero or there's a to_ext header field, · 08978d76

    that they match. This will catch a QWK networking bug in previous
    Synchronet versions where the index.to was non-zero (the number of
    the QWKnet node account), but there was no hdr.to_ext field, thus the index
    could not be recreated from the information in the header (e.g. by fixsmb).
    This was actually an intentional design decision at the time, but in hindsight,
    it's a bug (the index file is not supposed to contain any unique information).
