URL: https://github.com/apache/mynewt-newtmgr/pull/168


   To determine the correct amount of image data to put in an image upload 
request, newtmgr repeatedly generates requests until it finds the optimal 
value.  Each of these requests must be identical (aside from the payload size) 
or else the comparison is invalid.  If a `sesn`'s filter uses different 
parameters each time it encodes a message (e.g., if it does encryption), that 
breaks this method of determining the correct chunk size.
           
   By freezing the filter, the same parameters get used for each subsequent 
message encoding.  This ensures the payload size won't change after we have 
settled on a chunk size.
