// A StrikeRegister is critbit tree which stores a set of observed nonces.
// We use a critbit tree because:
//   1) It's immune to algorithmic complexity attacks. If we had used a hash
//      tree, an attacker could send us a series of values which stretch out one
//      of the hash chains, causing us to do much more work than normal.
//   2) We can write it to use a fixed block of memory: avoiding fragmentation
//      issues and so forth. (We might be able to do that with the STL
//      algorithms and a custom allocator, but I don't want to go there.)
//   3) It's simple (compared to balanced binary trees) and doesn't involve
//      bouncing nearly as many cache lines around.
//   4) It allows us to query for the oldest element in log(n) time.
//
// This code is based on djb's public domain critbit tree from qhasm.
//
// A critbit tree has external and internal nodes. External nodes are just the
// nonce values (which are stored with internal times, see below, and without
// the orbit values included). Internal nodes contain the bit number at which
// the tree is branching and exactly two children. The critical bit is stored
// as a byte number and a byte (|otherbits|) which has all the bits set
// /except/ the one in question.
//
// Internal nodes have exactly two children: an internal node with only a
// single child would be useless.
//
// The branching bit number (considering the MSB to be the 1st bit) is
// monotonically increasing as you go down the tree.
//
// There are two distinct time representations used. External times are those
// which are exposed to the users of this class. They are expected to be a
// count of the number of seconds since the UNIX epoch. Internal times are a
// count of the number of seconds since a point in time a couple of years
// before the creation time given to the constructor. (See
// |ExternalTimeToInternal|) This avoids having to worry about overflow since
// we assume that no process will run for 130 years.
