/** @module thaliPeerPoolInterface */
/**
* Interface for a class that can manage communications with remote peers. All
* requests to communicate with remote peers are submitted as action class
* instances to a pool who decides how many actions of which types to allow.
* The pool will also track how many incoming connections there are and turn
* off advertising when necessary to keep the number of connections at an
* acceptable limit.
*
* __Open Issue:__ One suspects that it will turn out that Bluetooth has a fixed
* limit for how many connections it can have regardless of who initiated them.
* But this has not been proved yet. Once it is we will need to specify that the
* pool has to manage the fixed sum of ingoing and outgoing connections.
*
* __Open Issue:__ Have we found a practical limit to how many simultaneous
* sessions MPCF can handle? One suspects the behavior will be different over
* Bluetooth vs Apple's proprietary variant of Wifi Direct vs a Wifi AP point.
* We will have to consider the answer to the question of connection limits when
* creating an instance of this interface.
*
* This is created as an interface in order to allow us to experiment with
* different approaches for managing bandwidth and to make it easy for third
* parties to create their own drop in managers.
*
* Amongst other things the pool must limit:
*
* + How many simultaneous HTTP requests we have outstanding.
* + Typically this will be a global pool for Wifi and a per peer pool for
* non-TCP transports.
* + How many incoming peers are allowed to simultaneously have incoming
* connections over non-TCP transports.
*
* @public
* @interface
* @constructor

* queue, the kill method called on the action and then the pool MUST stop
* tracking that action.
*
* If the action was started by the pool and is in its started state but has not
* finished yet then the kill method MUST be called on the action and the pool
* MUST NOT track the action any further.
*
* If the action is not recognized then this is treated as a success and null is
* returned.
