// IPC::ChannelProxy
//
// This class is a helper class that is useful when you wish to run an IPC
// channel on a background thread. It provides you with the option of either
// handling IPC messages on that background thread or having them dispatched to
// your main thread (the thread on which the IPC::ChannelProxy is created).
//
// The API for an IPC::ChannelProxy is very similar to that of an IPC::Channel.
// When you send a message to an IPC::ChannelProxy, the message is routed to
// the background thread, where it is then passed to the IPC::Channel's Send
// method. This means that you can send a message from your thread and your
// message will be sent over the IPC channel when possible instead of being
// delayed until your thread returns to its message loop. (Often IPC messages
// will queue up on the IPC::Channel when there is a lot of traffic, and the
// channel will not get cycles to flush its message queue until the thread, on
// which it is running, returns to its message loop.)
//
// An IPC::ChannelProxy can have a MessageFilter associated with it, which will
// be notified of incoming messages on the IPC::Channel's thread. This gives
// the consumer of IPC::ChannelProxy the ability to respond to incoming
// messages on this background thread instead of on their own thread, which may
// be bogged down with other processing. The result can be greatly improved
// latency for messages that can be handled on a background thread.
//
// The consumer of IPC::ChannelProxy is responsible for allocating the Thread
// instance where the IPC::Channel will be created and operated.
//
// Thread-safe send
//
// If a particular |Channel| implementation has a thread-safe |Send()| operation
// then ChannelProxy skips the inter-thread hop and calls |Send()| directly. In
// this case the |channel_| variable is touched by multiple threads so
// |channel_lifetime_lock_| is used to protect it. The locking overhead is only
// paid if the underlying channel supports thread-safe |Send|.

// filter may be null if the consumer is not interested in handling messages
// on the background thread. Any message not handled by the filter will be
// dispatched to the listener. The given task runner correspond to a thread
// on which IPC::Channel is created and used (e.g. IO thread).
