Variable bound_write_state: object|zero SSL.Packet.bound_write_state
Description: TLS 1.3 and later: the State this packet must be encrypted with, captured when it was queued via Connection.send_packet().
Note: TLS 1.3 rekeys at fixed protocol points by directly reassigning current_write_state (see Connection.new_traffic_state()), rather than via a PACKET_change_cipher_spec marker flowing through the output queue as TLS 1.2 and earlier do. Since Connection.send_packet() only queues a packet -- the actual encrypt_packet() call happens later, whenever Connection.to_write() drains the queue -- encrypting with

Variable marginal_size: protected int SSL.Packet.marginal_size
Description: The fragment max size is 2^14 (RFC 5246 6.2.1). Compressed fragments are however allowed to be 1024 bytes over (6.2.2), and Ciphertexts 2048 bytes (6.2.3). State the additional headroom in this variable.

Method create: SSL.Packet SSL.Packet(ProtocolVersion version, void|int extra)
Parameter version: The version sent packets will be created for.
Parameter extra: Additional fragment size, over the 2^14 bytes for a plaintext TLS fragment.
