// main is the entry point to the calico-typha binary.
//
// Its main role is to sequence Typha's startup by:
//
// Initialising early logging config (log format and early debug settings).
//
// Parsing command line parameters.
//
// Loading datastore configuration from the environment or config file.
//
// Loading more configuration from the datastore (this is retried until success).
//
// Starting the fan-out proxy.
//
// Starting the usage reporting and prometheus metrics endpoint threads (if configured).
//
// Then, it defers to monitorAndManageShutdown(), which blocks until one of the components
// fails, then attempts a graceful shutdown.  At that point, all the processing is in
// background goroutines.
//
// To avoid having to maintain rarely-used code paths, Typha handles updates to its
// main config parameters by exiting and allowing itself to be restarted by the init
// daemon.
