+/**
+ * An FSTStream is an abstract base class that represents a restartable streaming RPC to the
+ * Firestore backend. It's built on top of GRPC's own support for streaming RPCs, and adds several
+ * critical features for our clients:
+ *
+ * - Restarting a stream is allowed (after failure)
+ * - Exponential backoff on failure (independent of the underlying channel)
+ * - Authentication via FSTCredentialsProvider
+ * - Dispatching all callbacks into the shared worker queue
+ *
+ * Subclasses of FSTStream implement serialization of models to and from bytes (via protocol
+ * buffers) for a specific streaming RPC and emit events specific to the stream.
+ *
+ * ## Starting and Stopping
+ *
+ * Streaming RPCs are stateful and need to be started before messages can be sent and received.
+ * The FSTStream will call its delegate's specific streamDidOpen method once the stream is ready
+ * to accept requests.
+ *
+ * Should a `start` fail, FSTStream will call its delegate's specific streamDidClose method with an
+ * NSError indicating what went wrong. The delegate is free to call start again.
+ *
+ * An FSTStream can also be explicitly stopped which indicates that the caller has discarded the
+ * stream and no further events should be emitted. Once explicitly stopped, a stream cannot be
+ * restarted.
+ *
+ * ## Subclassing Notes
+ *
+ * An implementation of FSTStream needs to implement the following methods:
+ * - `createRPCWithRequestsWriter`, should create the specific RPC (a GRPCCall object).
+ * - `handleStreamMessage`, receives protocol buffer responses from GRPC and must deserialize and
+ * delegate to some stream specific response method.
+ * - `notifyStreamOpen`, should call through to the stream-specific streamDidOpen method.
+ * - `notifyStreamInterrupted`, calls through to the stream-specific streamWasInterrupted method.
+ *
+ * Additionally, beyond these required methods, subclasses will want to implement methods that
+ * take request models, serialize them, and write them to using writeRequest:.
+ *
+ * ## RPC Message Type
+ *
+ * FSTStream intentionally uses the GRPCCall interface to GRPC directly, bypassing both GRPCProtoRPC
+ * and GRXBufferedPipe for sending data. This has been done to avoid race conditions that come out
+ * of a loosely specified locking contract on GRXWriter. There's essentially no way to safely use
+ * any of the wrapper objects for GRXWriter (that perform buffering or conversion to/from protos).
+ *
+ * See https://github.com/grpc/grpc/issues/10957 for the kinds of things we're trying to avoid.
