tor-chanmgr: Manage a set of channels on the Tor network.

Overview

This crate is part of Arti, a project to implement Tor in Rust.

In Tor, a channel is a connection to a Tor relay. It can be direct via TLS, or indirect via TLS over a pluggable transport. (For now, only direct channels are supported.)

Since a channel can be used for more than one circuit, it's important to reuse channels when possible. This crate implements a [ChanMgr] type that can be used to create channels on demand, and return existing channels when they already exist.
