/**
 * The XMPPConnection interface provides an interface for connections to an XMPP server and
 * implements shared methods which are used by the different types of connections (e.g.
 * <code>XMPPTCPConnection</code> or <code>XMPPBOSHConnection</code>). To create a connection to an XMPP server
 * a simple usage of this API might look like the following:
 *
 * <pre>
 * // Create a connection to the igniterealtime.org XMPP server.
 * XMPPTCPConnection con = new XMPPTCPConnection("igniterealtime.org");
 * // Connect to the server
 * con.connect();
 * // Most servers require you to login before performing other tasks.
 * con.login("jsmith", "mypass");
 * // Start a new conversation with John Doe and send him a message.
 * ChatManager chatManager = ChatManager.getInstanceFor(con);
 * chatManager.addIncomingListener(new IncomingChatMessageListener() {
 *     public void newIncomingMessage(EntityBareJid from, Message message, Chat chat) {
 *         // Print out any messages we get back to standard out.
 *         System.out.println("Received message: " + message);
 *     }
 * });
 * Chat chat = chatManager.chatWith("jdoe@igniterealtime.org");
 * chat.send("Howdy!");
 * // Disconnect from the server
 * con.disconnect();
 * </pre>
 * <p>
 * Note that the XMPPConnection interface does intentionally not declare any methods that manipulate
 * the connection state, e.g. <code>connect()</code>, <code>disconnect()</code>. You should use the
 * most specific connection type, e.g. <code>XMPPTCPConnection</code> as declared type and use the
 * XMPPConnection interface when you don't need to manipulate the connection state.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * XMPPConnections can be reused between connections. This means that an Connection may be connected,
 * disconnected and then connected again. Listeners of the XMPPConnection will be retained across
 * connections.
 * </p>
 * <h2>Incoming Stanza Listeners</h2>
 * Most callbacks (listeners, handlers, …) than you can add to a connection come in three different variants:
 * <ul>
 * <li>standard</li>
 * <li>async (asynchronous)</li>
 * <li>sync (synchronous)</li>
 * </ul>
 * <p>
 * Standard callbacks are invoked concurrently, but it is ensured that the same callback is never run concurrently.
 * The callback's identity is used as key for that. The events delivered to the callback preserve the order of the
 * causing events of the connection.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * Asynchronous callbacks are run decoupled from the connections main event loop. Hence a callback triggered by
 * stanza B may (appear to) invoked before a callback triggered by stanza A, even though stanza A arrived before B.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * Synchronous callbacks are run synchronous to the main event loop of a connection. Hence they are invoked in the
 * exact order of how events happen there, most importantly the arrival order of incoming stanzas. You should only
 * use synchronous callbacks in rare situations.
 * </p>
