Per our language specification, unsafe literals are by their inherent
name literals, hence keep them under this variant. Also, it simplifies
a bunch of implementations. Although I'm sure we can do something for
performance to simply provide an error case when we encounter a
disallowed literal.
* Re-implement network stack
This commit does a complete overhaul to the networking subsystem, and this has
been pending for a long time. For whatever reason, when some generic
flexibility was aimed for, we went ahead with the "expensive emulation" of
async traits which has resulted in unnecessary complication with type arguments
(lifetimes, function signatures looking insane et cetera) besides the usual
downsides.
Also, the termination signaling mechanism was slightly excessive because it was
built with the idea of supporting PUB/SUB by default.
Last but not the least, the authentication system used dynamism which had
resulted in unwanted complication to type arguments for functions that accepted
the auth handle. Now, none of those complications exist and we have an almost
glorious life (for now atleast).
