This encapsulates what our multi-client IPC servers typically do on
startup:
1. Create a Core::LocalServer
2. Take over a listening socket file descriptor from SystemServer
3. Set up an accept handler for incoming connections
IPC::MultiServer does all this for you! All you have to do is provide
the relevant client connection type as a template argument.
These ones all manage their storage internally, whereas the WebContent
and ImageDecoder ones require the caller to manage their lifetime. This
distinction is not obvious to the user without looking through the code,
so an API that makes this clearer would be nice.
Everyone used this hook in the same way: immediately accept() on the
socket and then do something with the newly accepted fd.
This patch simplifies the hook by having LocalServer do the accepting
automatically.
This patch introduces the SQLServer system server. This service is
supposed to be the only process/application talking to database storage.
This makes things like locking and caching more reliable, easier to
implement, and more efficient.
In LibSQL we added a client component that does the ugly IPC nitty-
gritty for you. All that's needed is setting a number of event handler
lambdas and you can connect to databases and execute statements on them.
Applications that wish to use this SQLClient class obviously need to
link LibSQL and LibIPC.
