//
//   type impl struct{}
//   func (impl) NonStreaming(ctx *context.T, call rpc.ServerCall, ...) (...)
//   func (impl) Streaming(ctx *context.T, call *MyCall, ...) (...)
//
// The first in-arg must be context.T.  The second in-arg must be a call; for
// non-streaming methods it must be rpc.ServerCall, and for streaming methods it
// must be a pointer to a struct that implements rpc.StreamServerCall, and also
// adds typesafe streaming wrappers.  Here's an example that streams int32 from
// client to server, and string from server to client:
//
//   type MyCall struct { rpc.StreamServerCall }
//
//   // Init initializes MyCall via rpc.StreamServerCall.
//   func (*MyCall) Init(rpc.StreamServerCall) {...}
//
//   // RecvStream returns the receiver side of the server stream.
//   func (*MyCall) RecvStream() interface {
//     Advance() bool
//     Value() int32
//     Err() error
//   } {...}
//
//   // SendStream returns the sender side of the server stream.
//   func (*MyCall) SendStream() interface {
//     Send(item string) error
//   } {...}
//
// We require the streaming call arg to have this structure so that we can
// capture the streaming in and out arg types via reflection.  We require it to
// be a concrete type with an Init func so that we can create new instances,
// also via reflection.
//
// As a temporary special-case, we also allow generic streaming methods:
//
//   func (impl) Generic(ctx *context.T, call rpc.StreamServerCall, ...) (...)
//
// The problem with allowing this form is that via reflection we can no longer
// determine whether the server performs streaming, or what the streaming in and
// out types are.
// TODO(toddw): Remove this special-case.
//
// The ReflectInvoker silently ignores unexported methods, and exported methods
// whose first argument doesn't implement rpc.ServerCall.  All other methods
// must follow the above rules; bad method types cause an error to be returned.
