Hmpf, at least I shouldn't be incrementing the existing stats on every
update, especially not TLSCURR* :/

I don't see much benefit in tracking succesful rekeys. Failed rekeys
seem more interesting to me. What would we get from counting succesful
rekeys?

I guess all the actual init (alloc software context and set it up)
could go in a separate function. I'll see if I can split a few more
things out from the end of the function without making it too messy.

Yep, that's me. Basically, expanding the existing tls_cipher_size_desc
to completely remove the switch (crypto_info->cipher_type) (from both
setsockopt and getsockopt). I'll clean up and submit those changes,
and then rebase the next version of this series on top. Dunno why I
decided to focus on the rekey first.
