6//! [`GrpcDispatcher::serve_with_shutdown`]: the gRPC server's graceful stop.
7//!
8//! The same order as [`Server::serve_with_shutdown`](crate::serve::Server::serve_with_shutdown)
9//! — stop accepting, end the tasks in flight, then drain — built on tonic's
10//! own graceful shutdown. tonic has no drain deadline (it waits for every
11//! connection), and a server-streaming RPC ends only when its task does, so
12//! the tasks have to be ended first and the wait has to be bounded here.
