* Messages of type stroke_msg_t's are sent over a unix socket
* (/var/run/charon.ctl). stroke_t implements the connections_t
* and the policies_t interface, which means it acts as a
* configuration backend for those too. stroke_t uses an own
* thread to read from the socket.
*
* @warning DO NOT cast stroke_t to any of the implemented interfaces!
* stroke_t implements multiple interfaces, so you must use
* stroke_t.interface_xy to access the specific interface! You have
* been warned...
