/**
 * Represents the poison for dataflow operators.
 * After receiving the poison a dataflow operator will send the poisson to all its output channels and terminate.
 *
 * Non=immediate poison will allow selectors to keep processing all remaining inputs until these get also poisoned.
 * There§s no difference in behavior between immediate and non=immediate poison pills when obtained bz an operator.
