/**
 * Multi-process usage support for ApplicationPool.
 *
 * ApplicationPoolServer implements a client/server architecture for ApplicationPool.
 * This allows one to use ApplicationPool in a multi-process environment (unlike
 * StandardApplicationPool). The cache/pool data is stored in the server. Different
 * processes can then access the pool through the server.
 *
 * ApplicationPoolServer itself does not inherit ApplicationPool. Instead, it returns
 * an ApplicationPool object via the connect() call. For example:
 * @code
 *   // Create an ApplicationPoolServer.
 *   ApplicationPoolServer server(...);
 *   
 *   // Now fork a child process, like Apache's prefork MPM eventually will.
 *   pid_t pid = fork();
 *   if (pid == 0) {
 *       // Child process
 *       
 *       // Connect to the server. After connection, we have an ApplicationPool
 *       // object!
 *       ApplicationPoolPtr pool(server.connect());
 *
 *       // We don't need to connect to the server anymore, so we detach from it.
 *       // This frees up some resources, such as file descriptors.
 *       server.detach();
 *
 *       ApplicationPool::SessionPtr session(pool->get("/home/webapps/foo"));
 *       do_something_with(session);
 *
 *       _exit(0);
 *   } else {
 *       // Parent process
 *       waitpid(pid, NULL, 0);
 *   }
 * @endcode
 *
 * <h2>Implementation notes</h2>
 *
 * <h3>Separate server executable</h3>
 * The actual server is implemented in ApplicationPoolServerExecutable.cpp, this class is
 * just a convenience class for starting/stopping the server executable and connecting
 * to it.
 *
 * In the past, the server logic itself was implemented in this class. This implies that
 * the ApplicationPool server ran inside the Apache process. This presented us with several
 * problems:
 * - Because of the usage of threads in the ApplicationPool server, the Apache VM size would
 *   go way up. This gave people the (wrong) impression that Passenger uses a lot of memory,
 *   or that it leaks memory.
 * - Although it's not entirely confirmed, we suspect that it caused heap fragmentation as
 *   well. Apache allocates lots and lots of small objects on the heap, and ApplicationPool
 *   server isn't exactly helping. This too gave people the (wrong) impression that
 *   Passenger leaks memory.
 * - It would unnecessarily bloat the VM size of Apache worker processes.
 * - We had to resort to all kinds of tricks to make sure that fork()ing a process doesn't
 *   result in file descriptor leaks.
 * - Despite everything, there was still a small chance that file descriptor leaks would
 *   occur, and this could not be fixed. The reason for this is that the Apache control
 *   process may call fork() right after the ApplicationPool server has established a new
 *   connection with a client.
 *
 * Because of these problems, it was decided to split the ApplicationPool server to a
 * separate executable. This comes with no performance hit.
 *
 * <h3>Anonymous server socket</h3>
 * Notice that ApplicationPoolServer does do not use TCP sockets at all, or even named Unix
 * sockets, despite being a server that can handle multiple clients! So ApplicationPoolServer
 * will expose no open ports or temporary Unix socket files. Only child processes are able
 * to use the ApplicationPoolServer.
 *
 * This is implemented through anonymous Unix sockets (<tt>socketpair()</tt>) and file descriptor
 * passing. It allows one to emulate <tt>accept()</tt>. ApplicationPoolServer is connected to
 * the server executable through a Unix socket pair. connect() sends a connect request to the
 * server through that socket. The server will then create a new socket pair, and pass one of
 * them back. This new socket pair represents the newly established connection.
