Supporting socket channels will allow better concurrent access to the socket's backing data stream. We can better support asynchronous workflows by providing a non-blocking mechanism for reads and writes.
To complete this, an end user should be able to:
- Have access to a comparable
SocketChannel / NativeSocketChannel implementation that closely mirrors our blocking socket behavior,
- Use a
ServerSocketChannel in a similar manner to a ServerSocket (Java17+)
