Channel sockets for Clojure/Script.

    Protocol  | client>server | client>server ?+ ack/reply | server>user push
  * WebSockets:       ✓              [1]                           ✓
  * Ajax:            [2]              ✓                           [3]

  [1] Emulate with cb-uuid wrapping
  [2] Emulate with dummy-cb wrapping
  [3] Emulate with long-polling

Terminology:
  * chsk      - Channel socket (Sente's own pseudo "socket")
  * server-ch - Underlying web server's async channel that implement
                Sente's server channel interface
  * sch       - server-ch alias
  * uid       - User-id. An application-level user identifier used for async
                push. May have semantic meaning (e.g. username, email address),
                may not (e.g. client/random id) - app's discretion.
  * cb        - Callback
  * tout      - Timeout
  * ws        - WebSocket/s
  * packed    - Arbitrary Clojure value serialized for client<->server comms
  * udt       - Unix timestamp (datetime long)

Special messages:
  * Callback wrapping: [<clj> <?cb-uuid>] for [1], [2]
  * Callback replies: :chsk/closed, :chsk/timeout, :chsk/error

  * Client-side events:
      [:chsk/ws-ping] ; ws-ping from server
      [:chsk/handshake [<?uid> nil <?handshake-data> <first-handshake?>]]
      [:chsk/state     [<old-state-map> <new-state-map> <open-change?>]]
      [:chsk/recv      <ev-as-pushed-from-server>] ; Server>user push

  * Server-side events:
      [:chsk/ws-ping] ; ws-ping from client
      [:chsk/ws-pong] ; ws-pong from client
      [:chsk/uidport-open  <uid>]
      [:chsk/uidport-close <uid>]
      [:chsk/bad-event     <event>]

Channel socket state map:
  :type               - e/o #{:auto :ws :ajax}
  :open?              - Truthy iff chsk appears to be open (connected) now
  :ever-opened?       - Truthy iff chsk handshake has ever completed successfully
  :first-open?        - Truthy iff chsk just completed first successful handshake
  :uid                - User id provided by server on handshake,    or nil
  :handshake-data     - Arb user data provided by server on handshake
  :last-ws-error      - ?{:udt _ :ev <WebSocket-on-error-event>}
  :last-ws-close      - ?{:udt _ :ev <WebSocket-on-close-event>
                          :clean? _ :code _ :reason _}
  :last-close         - ?{:udt _ :reason _}, with reason e/o
                          #{nil :clean :unexpected :requested-disconnect
                            :requested-reconnect :downgrading-ws-to-ajax
                            :ws-ping-timeout :ws-error}
  :udt-next-reconnect - Approximate udt of next scheduled auto-reconnect attempt

Notable implementation details:
  * core.async is used liberally where brute-force core.async allows for
    significant implementation simplifications. We lean on core.async's
    efficiency here.
  * For WebSocket fallback we use long-polling rather than HTTP 1.1 streaming
    (chunked transfer encoding). Http-kit _does_ support chunked transfer
    encoding but a small minority of browsers &/or proxies do not. Instead of
    implementing all 3 modes (WebSockets, streaming, long-polling) - it seemed
    reasonable to focus on the two extremes (performance + compatibility).
    In any case client support for WebSockets is growing rapidly so fallback
    modes will become increasingly irrelevant while the extra simplicity will
    continue to pay dividends.

General-use notes:
  * Single HTTP req+session persists over entire chsk session but cannot
    modify sessions! Use standard a/sync HTTP Ring req/resp for logins, etc.
  * Easy to wrap standard HTTP Ring resps for transport over chsks. Prefer
    this approach to modifying handlers (better portability).

Security options:

  :allowed-origins   ; e.g. #{"http://site.com" ...}, defaults to :all. ; Alpha

  :csrf-token-fn     ; ?(fn [ring-req]) -> CSRF-token for Ajax POSTs and WS handshake.

  :handshake-data-fn  ; (fn [ring-req]) -> arb user data to append to handshake evs.
  :lp-timeout-ms      ; Timeout (repoll) long-polling Ajax conns after given msecs.
  :send-buf-ms-ajax   ; [2]
  :send-buf-ms-ws     ; [2]
  :packer             ; :edn (default), or an IPacker implementation.

  :ws-kalive-ms       ; Max msecs to allow WebSocket inactivity before server sends ping to client.
  :ws-ping-timeout-ms ; Max msecs to wait for ws-kalive ping response before concluding conn is broken.

  ;; When a connection is closed, Sente waits a little for possible reconnection before
  ;; actually marking the connection as closed. This facilitates Ajax long-polling,
  ;; server->client buffering, and helps to reduce event noise from spotty connections.
  :ms-allow-reconnect-before-close-ws   ; Msecs to wait for WebSocket conns (default: 2500)
  :ms-allow-reconnect-before-close-ajax ; Msecs to wait for Ajax      conns (default: 5000)

[1] e.g. `(taoensso.sente.server-adapters.http-kit/get-sch-adapter)` or
         `(taoensso.sente.server-adapters.immutant/get-sch-adapter)`.
    You must have the necessary web-server dependency in your project.clj and
    the necessary entry in your namespace's `ns` form.

[2] Optimization to allow transparent batching of rapidly-triggered
    server>user pushes. This is esp. important for Ajax clients which use a
    (slow) reconnecting poller. Actual event dispatch may occur <= given ms
    after send call (larger values => larger batch windows).

prefer to just write their own loop against `ch-recv`.

Nb performance note: since your `event-msg-handler` fn will be executed
within a simple go block, you'll want this fn to be ~non-blocking
(you'll especially want to avoid blocking IO) to avoid starving the
core.async thread pool under load. To avoid blocking, you can use futures,
agents, core.async, etc. as appropriate.
