3TODO: bridge mode, finally? 3TODO: updqate donna?
4TODO: gcm mode? 4TODO: clear one-time key/auth material from memory?
5TODO: replace ripemd160 as the only authentication hash. 5 - update embedded liblzf.
6TODO: increase rsa size. 6 - use liblzf with static hash table: lowers stack usage.
7TODO: replace transport bits by transport endpoint structs? 7 - do not initialise liblzf hash table for faster operation.
8TODO: http://incog-izick.blogspot.de/2011/08/using-openssl-aes-gcm.html 8 - use C++ variadic templates for callback.h, get rid of callback.pl.
9TODO: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12153009/openssl-c-example-of-aes-gcm-using-evp-interfaces 9 - update autoconf.
10 - slightly modernise code.
11 - make use of ICMPFILTER again, this stopped working because it
12 is not defined in the glibc header files.

11TODO: verify 143.1 Sat Oct 27 07:50:43 CEST 2018
12TODO: make sense of overhead calculation 15 - port to openssl 1.1 BUT SEE WARNING IN configure.ac. Do not use!
13TODO: if-up &c should not be scripts? 16 - tinc cruft removal: remove getopt.[ch], it's less portable to
14TODO: ipv6 17 have it then to not have it.
15TODO: gvpectrl should not use default privatekey,. or maybe document it better 18 - tinc cruft removal: use pkg-config to detect libressl/openssl.
19 - minor cleanups.

16 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: core protocol version 1.0. 22 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: core protocol version 1.0.
17 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: node sections are now introduced 23 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: node sections are now introduced
18 with "node nodename", not "node = nodename". 24 with "node nodename", not "node = nodename".
25 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: gvpectrl -g will now generate a single
26 keypair, while -G will try to generate all keypairs as before.
27 - openssl 1.0.2 is the latest supported openssl release,
28 openssl 1.1.0 is not supported at the moment as the work to
29 make it compatible to both versions is just too much. a switch
30 to openssl 1.1 or another library will be done in a future release.
31 - update examples to not generate keys centrally, but locally on each
32 node.
19 - add workaround for temporary/rare ENOBUFS condition. 33 - add workaround for temporary/rare ENOBUFS condition.
20 - while individual packets couldn't be replayed, a whole session 34 - while individual packets couldn't be replayed, a whole session
21 could be replayed - this has been fixed by an extra key exchange. 35 could be replayed - this has been fixed by an extra key exchange.
22 - fix a delete vs. delete [] mismatch in the central logging function. 36 - fix a delete vs. delete [] mismatch in the central logging function.

52 errors could occur and reset the connection. Transient hmac 66 errors could occur and reset the connection. Transient hmac
53 authentication errors are now being ignored for 3 seconds. 67 authentication errors are now being ignored for 3 seconds.

57 gcc's -fsanitize=address. 71 gcc's -fsanitize=address.
72 - bump old packet window size from 512 to 65536.
73 - update for big changes in openssl 1.1 API, wrap primitives
74 to make further changes easier.
75 - correctly check return values for openssl 1.0.0 and later.
76 - check for both public and private key file when deciding whether
77 to skip generating a key to avoid accidental overwrites.
