Replay cache functions

The replay cache functions deal with verifying that AP_REQ's do not contain duplicate authenticators; the storage must be non-volatile for the site-determined validity period of authenticators.

Each replay cache has a string name associated with it. The use of this name is dependent on the underlying caching strategy (for file-based things, it would be a cache file name). The caching strategy should use non-volatile storage so that replay integrity can be maintained across system failures.
