Description

Introduce a Parameters field in the Interest packet at network layer.
This field is intended to carry information intended to be "uploaded" from consumer to producer, such as command parameters in NFD Management protocol.
The benefit of having the Parameters field is to avoid sending back a potentially large blob in the Data response.
The protocol definition must take care to ensure the uniqueness of Interest Name, such as by appending a typed component (#4440) containing a digest of the Parameters.

This issue involves protocol updates and forwarding procedure designs only. Implementation in forwarder and libraries shall be separate issues.
