Andreas Steffen 7c5a2974b9 testing: Reorganizing IKEv1 and IKEv2 examples
For documentation purposes the new folders ikev1-algs, ikev2-algs,
ikev1-multi-ca and ikev2-multi-ca have been created. Most of the
test cases have now been converted to the vici interface. The
remaining legacy stroke scenarios yet to be converted have been put
into the ikev2-stroke-bye folder.

For documentation purposes some legacy stroke scenarios will be kept
in the ikev1-stroke, ikev2-stroke and ipv6-stroke folders.

The roadwarrior <b>carol</b> sets up a connection to gateway <b>moon</b>.
The authentication is based on <b>X.509 certificates</b> that are valid until
the year 2039 and are issued by a certification authority with a root ca
certificate valid until the year 2059. On 32-bit platforms, dates after
Jan 19 03:14:07 UTC 2038 cannot by represented by the time_t data type.
Thus if a time wrap-around occurs during ASN.1 to time_t conversions,
dates contained in the certificates are set to the maximum value,
i.e. to Jan 19 03:14:07 UTC 2038.
<p/>
Upon the successful establishment of the IPsec tunnel, the updown script
automatically inserts iptables-based firewall rules that let pass the tunneled traffic.
In order to test both tunnel and firewall, <b>carol</b> ping the client <b>alice</b>
behind the gateway <b>moon</b>.
