+ * This interface allows the validator to query a database of validation results
+ * while hiding details of how the database is implemented.
+ *
+ * query = cache->CreateQuery(cache->handle);
+ * CreateQuery: create an opaque query object, given an opaque context object.
+ * The context object contains persistent variables that will be used for all
+ * queries, whereas the query object contains information relevant to a single
+ * validation result.
+ *
+ * cache->AddData(query, data, data_size);
+ * AddData: add a blob of binary data to the query.  Conceptually, the query
+ * will concatenate all the binary data it is given, in the order it is given,
+ * and use the concatenated blob as a key to look up validation results in a
+ * database.  In practice, all of the data is hashed into a reasonabally sized
+ * key.  The validation cache doesn't care what data it is given, it is the
+ * responsibility of the validator to provide enough information to uniquely
+ * identify the validation result.  This gives flexibility to use different
+ * types of keys for different validators and different sources of code.
+ *
+ * validation_passed = cache->QueryKnownToValidate(query);
+ * QueryKnownToValidate: the key is complete, query the validation status.
+ * This should only be called once.  AddData must not be called after calling
+ * this function.
+ *
+ * cache->SetKnownToValidate(query);
+ * SetKnownToValidate: set the database entry for the given key.
+ * QueryKnownToValidate must be called first.
+ *
+ * cache->DestroyQuery(query);
+ * DestroyQuery: cleanup and deallocate the query object.
