This interface is very straightforward and I think its description belongs
in the algorithm document. On the client side, the protocol engine feeds
the clock control algorithm a stream of decrypted responses annotated with
their origin and destination timestamps. On the server side, the clock
control algorithm feeds the protocol engine the clock values that it should
be responding with.
