Determine the necessary changes to use current Chronosync as dependency
100%
Description
Currently, NLSR uses its own forked and modified version of Chronosync.
Updates and bug fixes to Chronosync are not being incorporated or tracked.
Ideally, NLSR should use Chronosync directly and not maintain its own version.
This task should determine the effort and changes necessary to stop using a forked version of Chronosync and instead use the main repo.

NLSR maintains its own sequence numbers (https://redmine.named-data.net/projects/nlsr/wiki/Handles_synchronization_logic_of_NLSR_LSDB_updates).
Chronosync does not to allow applications to set sequence numbers and maintains its own sequence numbers.
Making Chronosync a dependency is very simple and straightforward if a small API change can be made in Chronosync to allow setting of sequence numbers in publishData methods.
Apart from benefits mentioned in description we can rid NLSR of two dependencies: openssl and protobuf.
