689605b6a2 nts: switch client to compliant key exporter on NTS NAK
Implement a fallback for the NTS-NTP client to switch to the compliant
AES-128-GCM-SIV exporter context when the server is using the compliant
context, but does not support the new NTS-KE record negotiating its use,
assuming it can respond with an NTS NAK to the request authenticated
with the incorrect key.

Export both sets of keys when processing the NTS-KE response. If an NTS
NAK is the only valid response from the server after the last NTS-KE
session, switch to the keys exported with the compliant context for the
following requests instead of dropping all cookies and restarting
NTS-KE. Don't switch back to the original keys if an NTS NAK is received
again.

cc706b50b9 nts: add client support for authentication with AES-128-GCM-SIV
If AES-128-GCM-SIV is available on the client, add it to the requested
algorithms in NTS-KE as the first (preferred) entry.

If supported on the server, it will make the cookies shorter, which
will get the length of NTP messages containing only one cookie below
200 octets. This should make NTS more reliable in networks where longer
NTP packets are filtered as a mitigation against amplification attacks
exploiting the ntpd mode 6/7 protocol.

6615bb1b78 nts: add support for multiple sets of trusted certificates
Modify the session, NTS-KE, and NTS-NTP code to support multiple sets of
trusted certificates and identify the sets by a 32-bit ID.

c1d56ede3f nts: rework update of NTP server address
In the NTS-NTP client instance, maintain a local copy of the NTP address
instead of using a pointer to the NCR's address, which may change at
unexpected times.

Also, change the NNC_CreateInstance() to accept only the NTP port to
make it clear the initial NTP address is the same as the NTS-KE address
and to make it consistent with NNC_ChangeAddress(), which accepts only
one address.

cc20ead3dc nts: reset NAK indicator with new request
Don't restart NTS-KE if a spoofed NAK response was received and no valid
response is received for a subsequent request.

cf10ce1b68 nts: allow missing SIV support
When compiled with NTS support, don't require a SIV cipher to be always
supported (e.g. due to a different version of a library used for
building). Handle this case with a fatal message instead of crash.
Also, check the support early in the client unit test to prevent a hang.

adcf073484 nts: refactor NTS context
Add a context structure for the algorithm and keys established by
NTS-KE. Modify the client to save the context and reset the SIV key to
the C2S/S2C key before each request/response instead of keeping two SIV
instances.

This will make it easier for the server to support different algorithms
and allow the client to save the context with cookies to disk.

66dc2b6d6b nts: rework NTS-KE retry interval
Make the NTS-KE retry interval exponentially increasing, using a factor
provided by the NKE session. Use shorter intervals when the server is
refusing TCP connections or the connection is closed or timing out
before the TLS handshake.
