// LeaderInterface (presumed to be a local interface) as leader.  The leader election process is
// "sticky" - once a leader becomes leader, as long as its communications with other processes are
// good it will remain leader.  The outKnownLeader variable is updated to reflect a best guess of
// the current leader.  If the proposed interface becomes the leader, the outKnownLeader will be
// set to the proposedInterface, and then if it is displaced by another leader, the return value will
// eventually be set.  If the return value is cancelled, the candidacy or leadership of the proposedInterface
// will eventually end.
