/// Communication is an class that handles data communication between two data
/// sources. It uses a Connection class to do the real communication. This
/// approach has a couple of advantages: it allows a single instance of this
/// class to be used even though its connection can change. Connections could
/// negotiate for different connections based on abilities like starting with
/// Bluetooth and negotiating up to WiFi if available.
///
/// When using this class, all reads and writes happen synchronously on the
/// calling thread. There is also a ThreadedCommunication class that supports
/// multi-threaded mode.
