// This class implements a simple line-based protocol:
//
// * For event line that is received from the client, the session sends a
//   message header followed by the content of the line as the message body.
//
// * The session generates heartbeat messages once a second.
//
// This protocol is implemented using two actors, handle_messages() and
// send_heartbeats(), each written as a coroutine.

  // these writes from overlapping. To achieve this, we use a channel with a
  // buffer size of one. The lock is claimed by sending a message to the
  // channel, and then released by receiving this message back again. If the
  // lock is not held then the channel's buffer is empty, and the send will
  // complete without delay. Otherwise, if the lock is held by the other actor,
  // then the send operation will not complete until the lock is released.
