//! Nylon Ring Host - A high-performance plugin host for the nylon-ring ABI.
//!
//! This crate provides the host-side implementation for loading and managing
//! plugins that conform to the nylon-ring ABI. It supports multiple execution
//! modes including fire-and-forget calls, request-response patterns, and
//! bidirectional streaming.
