/**
 * \ingroup ndn
 * \brief Strategy implementing stats-based randomized accept for interests
 *
 * (prerequisite) Window-based limits should be enabled
 *
 * This strategy has several limitation to accept interest for further processing:
 * - if per-fib-entry limit or per-face limit is exhausted, Interest will not be accepted
 * - if the number of interests received from the incoming face is less than threshold, then no special handling
 * - if this number is greater than threshold, an Interest will be accepted with probability equal to satisfaction ratio for this incoming face (overall per-face).
 * (probability is shifted to allow small rate of acceptance (1% by default) of Interests from faces with 0 satisfaction ratio.
