To protect the integrity of each packet, each packet needs to be wrapped by
SaslClient/SaslServer (see wrap/unwrap in
http://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/javax/security/sasl/SaslClient.html).
Currently sasl is only used to initialize the connection, and then we send
over the raw socket. This changes the lifetime of the sasl components, as
it needs to be used with all communication. It's not like SSL, where we
negotiate SSL at the start and then the SSL engine provides a socket which
we use to send data.
