/*
 * In order to make certain data synchronously accessible in certain contexts,
 * Haketilo smuggles it in string form in places like cookies, URLs and headers.
 * When using the smuggled data, we first need to make sure it isn't spoofed.
 * For that, we use this pseudo-signing mechanism.
 *
 * Despite what name suggests, no assymetric cryptography is involved, as it
 * would bring no additional benefits and would incur bigger performance
 * overhead. Instead, we hash the string data together with some secret value
 * that is supposed to be known only by this browser instance. Resulting hash
 * sum plays the role of the signature. In the hash we also include current
 * time. This way, even if signed data leaks (which shouldn't happen in the
 * first place), an attacker won't be able to re-use it indefinitely.
 *
 * The secret shared between execution contexts has to be available
 * synchronously. Under Mozilla, this is the extension's per-session id. Under
 * Chromium, this is a dummy web-accessible-resource name that resides in the
 * manifest and is supposed to be constructed by each user using a unique value
 * (this is done automatically by `build.sh').
