/// This is essentially an interface for sending and receiving raw network frames.
///
/// The interface is based on _tokens_, which are types that allow to receive/transmit a
/// single packet. The `receive` and `transmit` functions only construct such tokens, the
/// real sending/receiving operation are performed when the tokens are consumed.

/// Construct a token pair consisting of one receive token and one transmit token.
///
/// If there is a packet ready to be received, this function must return `Some`.
/// If there isn't, it must return `None`, and wake `cx.waker()` when a packet is ready.
///
/// The additional transmit token makes it possible to generate a reply packet based
/// on the contents of the received packet. For example, this makes it possible to
/// handle arbitrarily large ICMP echo ("ping") requests, where the all received bytes
/// need to be sent back, without heap allocation.

/// Construct a transmit token.
///
/// If there is free space in the transmit buffer to transmit a packet, this function must return `Some`.
/// If there isn't, it must return `None`, and wake `cx.waker()` when space becomes available.
///
/// Note that [`TxToken::consume`] is infallible, so it is not allowed to return a token
/// if there is no free space and fail later.
