//! An RPC framework providing client and server.
//!
//! Features:
//! * RPC deadlines, both client- and server-side.
//! * Cascading cancellation (works with multiple hops).
//! * Configurable limits
//!    * In-flight requests, both client and server-side.
//!        * Server-side limit is per-connection.
//!        * When the server reaches the in-flight request maximum, it returns a throttled error
//!          to the client.
//!        * When the client reaches the in-flight request max, messages are buffered up to a
//!          configurable maximum, beyond which the requests are back-pressured.
//!    * Server connections.
//!        * Total and per-IP limits.
//!        * When an incoming connection is accepted, if already at maximum, the connection is
//!          dropped.
//! * Transport agnostic.
