Detailed Description

Defines the interface between applications and the underlying GuestRPC channel. The goal is to have an abstraction so applications can run over the backdoor, VMCI sockets or TCP/IP sockets by just picking up the desired channel at runtime, without the need to modify the code.

For this reason, the behavior of all channels is modeled after the RpcIn channel currently used in Tools, so the socket-based channels won't provide much better functionality than what the backdoor provides (aside from being interrupt-based rather than poll-based).
