//! Serving the router over TLS.
//!
//! # Why this is fifty lines here rather than a dependency
//!
//! `axum-server` is the usual shape and was rejected. The accept loop is the
//! part of a TLS server where the decisions that matter are made, and all of
//! them are this crate's to make:
//!
//! - **A failed handshake must cost one connection, never the listener.**
//!   With client certificates required, failed handshakes are *normal
//!   traffic* — every port scanner and every health checker that does not
//!   know about the certificate produces one.
//! - **A connection must not be able to hold a slot forever.** A client that
//!   opens a socket and sends nothing is free for the client and not free
//!   for the server, so the handshake has a deadline
//!   ([`HANDSHAKE_TIMEOUT`]) — and so do the request headers after it
//!   ([`HEADER_TIMEOUT`]), because a client that completes a handshake and
//!   then goes quiet costs exactly as much as one that never handshook.
//! - **Shutdown must end.** One endpoint here answers with a body that
//!   never ends, so a drain that waits for every response body waits for
//!   every subscriber to leave; [`DRAIN_TIMEOUT`](crate::DRAIN_TIMEOUT) is what keeps a rollout
//!   from hanging on its own change stream.
//! - **A refused handshake must be recorded, and recorded saying nothing.**
//!   It goes through the same [`AuditSink`](crate::AuditSink) as everything
//!   else, as `endpoint=tls outcome=unauthenticated`, with no caller, no
//!   subject and no reason. An operator who has misconfigured a client CA
//!   needs to see *that* handshakes are failing; nobody needs to see whose.
//!
//! `axum-server` would own every one of them and expose none, and its
//! `tls-rustls` feature selects the `aws-lc-rs` provider — a vendored copy
//! of AWS-LC, built with cmake — where this crate wants `ring`, which is
//! already in the workspace's graph. What is used instead is `tokio-rustls`
//! for the handshake and hyper's own HTTP/1 connection for what follows:
//! the same two pieces `axum::serve` uses, with the acceptor spliced in
//! between.
//!
//! The rustls configuration itself is *not* built here: it comes from
//! [`Tls`](crate::tls::Tls), where the key loading, the permission refusal
//! and the client verifier live.

/// for as long as it likes, which is the exhaustion
/// [`HANDSHAKE_TIMEOUT`] exists to prevent, moved one step further in.

/// Serves `router` over TLS until `shutdown` completes.
///
/// The TLS material and the audit sink both come from `server`, which is the
/// same one the router was built over; `router` is passed separately so that
/// an embedder can wrap it — a layer of its own, a different fallback — the
/// way it can with [`axum::serve()`].
///
/// Shutdown is graceful in both halves: the listener stops accepting, and
/// every connection already open is told to finish the request it is serving
/// and close. A config server is restarted by a rollout, and dropping the
/// fetch a pod is making at that moment would make a rollout look like a
/// configuration failure to whoever is starting up beside it.
///
/// Graceful, and bounded: a connection that has not finished within
/// [`DRAIN_TIMEOUT`](crate::DRAIN_TIMEOUT) is dropped. An open change stream has no end of its
/// own, so an unbounded drain would be a rollout that waits for its
/// subscribers rather than the other way round.
///
/// # Errors
///
/// Only what the listener itself reports. A connection that fails — a
/// handshake that was refused, a client that went away — ends that
/// connection and nothing else.
///
/// # Panics
///
/// If `server` is not configured for TLS. Callers reach this function
/// through [`Server::tls`], which is `None` exactly when that is so.
