/*
We make an attempt here to identify the events that take place during
lifecycle of the apiserver.

We also identify each event with a name so we can refer to it.

Events:
- ShutdownInitiated: KILL signal received
- AfterShutdownDelayDuration: shutdown delay duration has passed
- InFlightRequestsDrained: all in flight request(s) have been drained
- HasBeenReady is signaled when the readyz endpoint succeeds for the first time

The following is a sequence of shutdown events that we expect to see during termination:
T0: ShutdownInitiated: KILL signal received
	- /readyz starts returning red
    - run pre shutdown hooks

T0+70s: AfterShutdownDelayDuration: shutdown delay duration has passed
	- the default value of 'ShutdownDelayDuration' is '70s'
	- it's time to initiate shutdown of the HTTP Server, server.Shutdown is invoked
	- as a consequene, the Close function has is called for all listeners
 	- the HTTP Server stops listening immediately
	- any new request arriving on a new TCP socket is denied with
      a network error similar to 'connection refused'
    - the HTTP Server waits gracefully for existing requests to complete
      up to '60s' (dictated by ShutdownTimeout)
	- active long running requests will receive a GOAWAY.

T0+70s: HTTPServerStoppedListening:
	- this event is signaled when the HTTP Server has stopped listening
      which is immediately after server.Shutdown has been invoked

T0 + 70s + up-to 60s: InFlightRequestsDrained: existing in flight requests have been drained
	- long running requests are outside of this scope
	- up-to 60s: the default value of 'ShutdownTimeout' is 60s, this means that
      any request in flight has a hard timeout of 60s.
	- it's time to call 'Shutdown' on the audit events since all
	  in flight request(s) have drained.

	// AfterShutdownDelayDuration event is signaled as soon as ShutdownDelayDuration
	// has elapsed since the ShutdownInitiated event.
	// ShutdownDelayDuration allows the apiserver to delay shutdown for some time.

	// in flight have completed. This is used as signal to shut down the audit backends

	// HTTP Server has stopped listening to the underlying socket.
