As long as any `child*` selector is received, only CHILD_SAs will be
terminated or rekeyed. Any passed `ike*` selectors will only be used to
filter the IKE_SAs when looking for matching CHILD_SAs. However, the
previous log messages seemed to indicate that IKE_SAs will also be
terminated/rekeyed.

Previously, the logger installed by the controller always announced
LEVEL_PRIVATE(4), which produced completely useless logging calls with
the common clients (vici/stroke) whose default log level is LEVEL_CTRL(1).
This can produce quite some overhead if there are e.g. a lot of concurrent
initiate() calls.
This should prevent a deadlock that could previously be caused when a
control-log event was raised. The deadlock looked something like this:
* Thread A holds the read lock on bus_t and raises the control-log event.
This requires acquiring the connection entry in write mode to queue the
outgoing message. If it is already held by another thread, this blocks
on a condvar.
* Thread B is registering the on_write() callback on the same connection's
stream due to a previous log message. Before this change, the code
acquired the entry in write mode as well, thus, blocking thread A. To
remove/add the stream, the mutex in watcher_t needs to be acquired.
* Thread C is in watcher_t's watch() and holds the mutex while logging on
level 2 or 3. The latter requires the read lock on bus_t, which should
usually be acquirable even if thread A holds it. Unless writers are
concurrently waiting on the lock and the implementation is blocking
new readers to prevent writer starvation.
* Thread D is removing a logger from the bus (e.g. after an initiate()
call) and is waiting to acquire the write lock on bus_t and is thereby
blocking thread C.
With this change, thread B should not block thread A anymore. So thread D
and thread C should eventually be able to proceed as well.
Thread A could be held up a bit if there is a thread already sending
messages for the same connection, but that should only cause a delay, no
deadlock, as on_write() and do_write() don't log (or lock) anything while
keeping the entry locked in write mode.

That method is subject to interface filtering, which isn't ideal for
DHCP traffic that probably uses an internal interface on which the IKE
daemon might be disabled. In that case `giaddr` is set to an incorrect
public IP, which in turn might prevent the plugin from receiving the
DHCP server's unicast response, in particular if the DHCP socket
is bound to the internal interface.
This new approach connects the client socket and thereby determines the
source address to reach the DHCP server.

With 5401a74d36 ("eap-tls: Add support for TLS 1.3") a TLS application
was added to implement TLS 1.3's protected success indication. For
earlier TLS versions, its build() method simply returned SUCCESS as
there was nothing to send. However, that had the unintended side-effect
of also not sending the final TLS handshake messages (ChangeCipherSpec
and Finished).
The reason is that the TLS stack first checks for remaining handshake
messages but then also asks the registered application for data to
piggyback to that response (before the commit there was no application,
so that step was skipped). The problem is that the status returned by
the application is directly forwarded through the TLS stack. So not
returning INVALID_STATE caused the session to get concluded immediately
instead of resulting in ALREADY_DONE that would trigger sending the
final EAP message instead of an EAP-Success.
Fixes: 5401a74d36 ("eap-tls: Add support for TLS 1.3")
Since 3dd5dc5011 ("Merge branch 'vici-python-timeout'"), any timeout
set directly on the socket is reset by `vici.Transport.receive()` unless
called by `vici.Session.listen()`. This prevents configuring a default
timeout directly on the socket.
However, setting a timeout directly on the socket also had drawbacks
since it can cause `vici.Transport.receive()` to raise a timeout error
while a subset of the data have been received, with no way to recover.
This commit merges both approaches by considering the timeout configured
on the socket by default (when no timeout is explicitly set) and
keeping the switch to blocking receive once the first byte has been
received. When the full expected data have been received, the timeout
configured on the socket is restored.

Before TLS 1.3, the server sent the last handshake message and had the
option to piggyback the EAP-Identity request directly onto the packet
with the TLS Finished message, or wait for the empty message by the
client that acknowledges the completion of the handshake. With TLS 1.3,
the client finishes the handshake after the server. So this option
is irrelevant there and we immediately start with Phase 2.
Since these might conflict with IKE traffic, this requires special care.
One option is to install bypass policies for the peer, which install
appropriate (throw) routes. However, that won't work if the traffic to
the gateway itself should be protected, in particular, for host-to-host
tunnels. So an alternative is to set a mark for the IKE socket and then
exclude that traffic from table 220 via the kernel-netlink plugin's
fwmark option.
The manager will allow charon-nm to create XFRM interfaces if supported
by the kernel instead of creating an unused dummy TUN interface.
The xfrmi tool is mostly obsolete nowadays as iproute2 supports creating
XFRM interfaces since 5.1.0 (2019-05). Older Debians don't ship that and
early versions didn't list the interface IDs. So there might still be
some uses for this tool.
As defined in RFC 9190, a "protected success indication" (0x00) is sent
from the server to the client over the TLS connection when using TLS 1.3.
The client responds with an empty EAP message, which is interpreted as
acknowledgement in our stack.
If we ever support session resumption with tunneled methods such as
EAP-TTLS, we'd have to send such an indication there too.
Since 6.2 the Linux kernel updates the last use time per SA. In
previous releases the attribute was only updated and reported for
specific outbound IPv6 SAs.
Using this reduces the number of kernel queries per CHILD_SA: for DPDs
from two policy queries (IN/FWD) to a single query of the inbound SA,
and for status reports the three policy queries (IN/FWD/OUT) can be
omitted and only the two SAs have to be queried. For NAT keepalives the
number of queries doesn't change but a policy query (OUT) is replaced by
a query for the outbound SA.
While we could use the existence of the attribute as indicator for its
support, we don't know this until we queried an SA. By using a version
check we can announce the feature from the start.
Currently supported by libipsec and PF_KEY on macOS (FreeBSD, like Linux,
reports the time the SA was first used in sadb_lifetime_usetime - it also
triggers rekeyings based on that, which Linux doesn't, it also triggers
them if an SA is never used).
While this uses the same mechanism, it's not necessary to explicitly
enable port_bypass, the regular socket policies work fine to bypass any
software policies.
While the kernel defines it since 2005 (2.6.14), some older versions of
socket.h shipped with C libraries might not. In particular, glibc only
added it with 2.24 in 2016.

With newer kernels (basic support for extended ACKs is there since 4.12
but some messages for XFRM were only added with 6.1) this gives more
detailed error messages to the user than e.g. a generic EINVAL or ENOSYS
error would.
Also enabled omitting the request payload in NLMSG_ERROR messages.
The resolvconf implementation provided by systemd via resolvectl strips
everything after the interface name, so each additional server that's
installed replaces the previous one. And even for other resolvconf
implementations installing them individually doesn't seem necessary as
we track and refcount them anyway.
Closesstrongswan/strongswan#1353
Newer releases of systemd contain a change that removes not the part
after the first dot but the part after the last when determining the
interface name (apparently some interface names actually contain a dot).
This changes the default prefix to only contain one dot and avoids the
dots added by IPv4 addresses to create a unique interface/protocol for
each DNS server (it also replaces the `:` in IPv6 addresses with
something that might cause less conflicts).

When issuing a deregistration message, some last events may still be sent
by the daemon before deregistration completes. Ignore such event messages
silently during deregistration, avoiding exceptions like:
vici.exception.SessionException:
Unexpected response type 7, expected '5' (EVENT_CONFIRM)
