/* Frame Streams data transfer protocol encode for DNSTAP messages.
 * The protocol looks to be specified in the libfstrm library.
 *
 * Quick writeup for DNSTAP usage, from reading fstrm/control.h eloquent
 * comments and fstrm/control.c for some bytesize details (the content type
 * length).
 *
 * The Frame Streams can be unidirectional or bi-directional.
 * bi-directional streams use control frame types READY, ACCEPT and FINISH.
 * uni-directional streams use control frame types START and STOP.
 * unknown control frame types should be ignored by the receiver, they
 * do not change the data frame encoding.
 *
 * bi-directional control frames implement a simple handshake protocol
 * between sender and receiver.
 *
 * The uni-directional control frames have one start and one stop frame,
 * before and after the data.  The start frame can have a content type.
 * The start and stop frames are not optional.
 *
 * data frames are preceded by 4byte length, bigendian.
 * zero length data frames are not possible, they are an escape that
 * signals the presence of a control frame.
 *
 * a control frame consists of 0 value in 4byte bigendian, this is really
 * the data frame length, with 0 the escape sequence that indicates one
 * control frame follows.
 * Then, 4byte bigendian, length of the control frame message.
 * Then, the control frame payload (of that length). with in it:
 *   4byte bigendian, control type (eg. START, STOP, READY, ACCEPT, FINISH).
 *   perhaps nothing more (STOP, FINISH), but for other types maybe
 *   control fields
 *      4byte bigendian, the control-field-type, currently only content-type.
 *      4byte bigendian, length of the string for this option.
 *      .. bytes of that string.
 *
 * The START type can have only one field.  Field max len 256.
 * control frame max frame length 512 (excludes the 0-escape and control
 * frame length bytes).
 *
 * the bidirectional type of transmission is like this:
 * client sends READY (with content type included),
 * client waits for ACCEPT (with content type included),
 * client sends START (with matched content type from ACCEPT)
 * .. data frames
 * client sends STOP.
 * client waits for FINISH frame.
