/*
 * QUIC Thread Assisted Functionality
 * ==================================
 *
 * Where OS threading support is available, QUIC can optionally support a thread
 * assisted mode of operation. The purpose of this mode of operation is to
 * ensure that assorted timeout events which QUIC expects to be handled in a
 * timely manner can be handled without the application needing to ensure that
 * SSL_tick() is called  on  time. This is not needed if the application always
 * has a call blocking to SSL_read() or SSL_write() (or another I/O function) on
 * a QUIC SSL object, but if the application goes for long periods of time
 * without making any such call to a QUIC SSL object, libssl cannot ordinarily
 * guarantee that QUIC timeout events will be serviced in a timely fashion.
 * Thread assisted  mode is therefore of use to applications which do not always
 * have an ongoing call to an I/O function on a QUIC SSL object but also do not
 * want to have to arrange periodic ticking.
 *
 * A consequence of this is that the intrusiveness of thread assisted mode upon
 * the general architecture of our QUIC engine is actually fairly limited and
 * amounts to an automatic ticking of the QUIC engine when timeouts expire,
 * synchronised correctly with an application's own threads using locking.
