Function silc_packet_wait(1) SYNOPSIS
        void *silc_packet_wait_init(SilcPacketStream stream,
                                    const SilcID *source_id, ...);
DESCRIPTION
        Initializes a packet waiter for the packet stream `stream' and
        for the variable argument list of packet types.  The function
        silc_packet_wait can be used to block the thread until a packet
        has been received.

        This function is used to initialize the waiting and to give the list
        of packet types that caller wish to receive.  The variable argument
        list must end with -1.  To receive all packets use SILC_PACKET_ANY.
        If the `source_id' is non-NULL then only packets of the specified
        type from the specified `source_id' are received.  If it is NULL
        then the packet source is ignored.

        Returns a context that must be given to the silc_packet_wait function
        as argument.  Returns NULL on error.  To uninitialize the waiting
        call silc_packet_wait_uninit.
NOTES
        Note that packets may be available immediately after calling this
        function and they will be buffered, until silc_packet_wait is called.
EXAMPLE
        void *waiter;

        // Will wait for private message packets
        waiter = silc_packet_wait_init(stream, NULL,
                                       SILC_PACKET_PRIVATE_MESSAGE, -1);
