/**
 * @brief Interface for validating data and interest packets.
 *
 * Every time a validation process initiated, it creates a ValidationState that exist until
 * validation finishes with either success or failure.  This state serves several purposes:
 * - record Interest or Data packet being validated
 * - record failure callback
 * - record certificates in the certification chain for the Interest or Data packet being validated
 * - record names of the requested certificates to detect loops in the certificate chain
 * - keep track of the validation chain size (aka validation "depth")
 *
 * During validation, policy and/or key fetcher can augment validation state with policy- and
 * fetcher-specific information using ndn::Tag's.
 *
 * A validator has a trust anchor cache to save static and dynamic trust anchors, a verified
 * certificate cache for saving certificates that are already verified and an unverified
 * certificate cache for saving prefetched but not yet verified certificates.
 *
 * @todo Limit the maximum time the validation process is allowed to run before declaring failure
 * @todo Ability to customize maximum lifetime for trusted and untrusted certificate caches.
 *       Current implementation hard-codes them to be 1 hour and 5 minutes.
