The peer module defines the TCP handlers that implement peer discovery.
| ping_pong | The ping_pong module defines a basic implementation of the P2P interface.
Every peer continuously pings its MultiAddr to a random subset of its
known peers. Whenever a peer is pinged about a new MultiAddr, it will ping
a random subset of its known peers to inform them about that new
MultiAddr, and it will pong its own MultiAddr to that new MultiAddr.
This results in a basic gossip algorithm with back channeling.

| Client | A Client can send data frames over the network. Generally, this interface
is implemented by an external networking driver that is injected into a
P2P implementation.
|
| P2P | The P2P trait defines a standard inteface that all P2P implementation must
expose.
|
| Server | A Server can accept data frames over the network. Generally, this
interface is implemented by a P2P implementation and passed to an external
network driver.
