Description

Right now, validator-conf completely ignores timestamp in command Interests and validates just signature. Validating signature of Interests without validating the timestamp doesn't have much merit. Unless there is a valid use case, validation should always include checking timestamp (and remembering the last one used).

At most, validator conf can contain an additional flag to disable such checking, but the default behavior should still be "verify timestamp".
