Function silc_ske_initiator
SYNOPSIS

        SilcAsyncOperation
        silc_ske_initiator(SilcSKE ske,
                           SilcPacketStream stream,
                           SilcSKEParams params,
                           SilcSKEStartPayload start_payload);

DESCRIPTION

        Starts the SILC Key Exchange protocol as initiator.  The completion
        callback that was set in silc_ske_set_callbacks will be called once
        the protocol has completed.  The `stream' is the network connection
        to the remote host.  The SKE library will handle all key exchange
        packets sent and received in the `stream' connection.  The library will
        also set the remote host's ID automatically to the `stream' if it is
        present in the exchanged packets.  The `params' include SKE parameters,
        and it must be provided.

        If the `start_payload' is NULL the library will generate it
        automatically.  Caller may provide it if it wants to send its own
        security properties instead of using the default ones library
        generates.  If caller provides it, it must not free it once it has
        been given as argument to this function.

        This function returns SilcAsyncOperation operation context which can
        be used to control the protocol from the application.  Application may
        for example safely abort the protocol at any point, if needed.  Returns
        NULL on error.
