//! Traits and type definitions for the envelope of a message.
//!
//! The [`Envelope`] type is a helper which is used to send different message types in a single
//! channel. It is necessary for a statically typed language like Rust.
//!
//! This module provides some traits which are useful when packing and unpacking messages into
//! an envelope for a specific actor.
//!
