"""The 'medium' layer for the smart servers and clients.

"Medium" here is the noun meaning "a means of transmission", not the adjective
for "the quality between big and small."

Media carry the bytes of the requests somehow (e.g. via TCP, wrapped in HTTP, or
over SSH), and pass them to and from the protocol logic.  See the overview in
bzrlib/transport/smart/__init__.py.
