// peer provides a decred peer for handling decred communications.  The

// dispatched to their own handler.  For inbound data-related messages such as
// blocks, transactions, and inventory, the data is passed on to the block
// manager to handle it.  Outbound messages are queued via QueueMessage or
// QueueInventory.  QueueMessage is intended for all messages, including
// responses to data such as blocks and transactions.  QueueInventory, on the
// other hand, is only intended for relaying inventory as it employs a trickling
// mechanism to batch the inventory together.  The data flow for outbound
// messages uses two goroutines, queueHandler and outHandler.  The first,
// queueHandler, is used as a way for external entities (mainly block manager)
// to queue messages quickly regardless of whether the peer is currently
// sending or not.  It acts as the traffic cop between the external world and
// the actual goroutine which writes to the network socket.  In addition, the
// peer contains several functions which are of the form pushX, that are used
// to push messages to the peer.  Internally they use QueueMessage.
