// Package connmgr provides connection tracking and management interfaces for libp2p.
//
// The ConnManager interface exported from this package allows libp2p to enforce an
// upper bound on the total number of open connections. To avoid service disruptions,
// connections can be tagged with metadata and optionally "protected" to ensure that
// essential connections are not arbitrarily cut.
