There are a few and I've added that to squeezelite about a year ago I
would say. My bridges also accept native opus and in transparent mode,
if a player supports opus (CC player do), they report opus support to
LMS and forward raw data, but the mimetype is set to
audio/ogg:codecs=opus. In re-coding mode, they report to LMS that opus
is supported and do transcoding, so it's more simple

But I've tested this opus webradio form the OP and it does not works
because, as you pointed out, the parseOggHeader does not check that it's
opus, so it sends an "ogg" (o) codec to the player (i.e. squeezelite)
with is then interpretred as vorbis ... and that does not end up very
well :)

I've verified that the OP radio works well once we added your patch, so
I think it was the real problem
