/// Classification of an error arising from Arti's Tor operations
///
/// This `ErrorKind` should suffice for programmatic handling by most applications embedding Arti:
/// get the kind via [`HasKind::kind`] and compare it to the expected value(s) with equality
/// or by matching.
///
/// When forwarding or reporting errors, use the whole error (e.g., `TorError`), not just the kind:
/// the error itself will contain more detail and context which is useful to humans.
//
// Splitting vs lumping guidelines:
//
// # Split on the place which caused the error
//
// Every ErrorKind should generally have an associated "location" in
// which it occurred.  If a problem can happen in two different
// "locations", it should have two different ErrorKinds.  (This goal
// may be frustrated sometimes by difficulty in determining where exactly
// a given error occurred.)
//
// The location of an ErrorKind should always be clear from its name.  If is not
// clear, add a location-related word to the name of the ErrorKind.
//
// For the purposes of this discussion, the following locations exist:
//   - Process:  Our code, or the application code using it.  These errors don't
//     usually need a special prefix.
//   - Host: A problem with our local computing  environment.  These errors
//     usually reflect trying to run under impossible circumstances (no file
//     system, no permissions, etc).
//   - Local: Another process on the same machine, or on the network between us
//     and the Tor network.  Errors in this location often indicate an outage,
//     misconfiguration, or a censorship event.
//   - Tor: Anywhere within the Tor network, or connections between Tor relays.
//     The words "Exit" and "Relay" also indicate this location.
//   - Remote: Anywhere _beyond_ the Tor exit. Can be a problem in the Tor
//     exit's connection to the real internet,  or with the remote host that the
//     exit is talking to.  (This kind of error can also indicate that the exit
//     is lying.)
//
// ## Lump any locations more fine-grained than that.
//
// We do not split locations more finely unless there's a good reason to do so.
// For example, we don't typically split errors within the "Tor" location based
// on whether they happened at a guard, a directory, or an exit.  (Errors with
// "Exit" or "Guard" in their names are okay, so long as that kind of error can
// _only_ occur at an Exit or Guard.)
//
// # Split based on reasonable response and semantics
//
// We also should split ErrorKinds based on what it's reasonable for the
// receiver to do with them.  Users may find more applications for our errors
// than we do, so we shouldn't assume that we can predict every reasonable use
// in advance.
//
// ErrorKinds should be more specific than just the locations in which they
// happen: for example, there shouldn't be a `TorNetworkError` or
// a `RemoteFailure`.
//
// # Avoid exposing implementation details
//
// ErrorKinds should not relate to particular code paths in the Arti codebase.
