/**
 * A Factory to create {@link Connection} instances for {@link Connector}s.
 * 
 * A Connection factory is responsible for instantiating and configuring a {@link Connection} instance
 * to handle an {@link EndPoint} accepted by a {@link Connector}.
 * 

 * A ConnectionFactory has a protocol name that represents the protocol of the Connections
 * created.  Example of protocol names include:
 * 

 * http
Creates a HTTP connection that can handle multiple versions of HTTP from 0.9 to 1.1
 * h2
Creates a HTTP/2 connection that handles the HTTP/2 protocol
 * SSL-XYZ
Create an SSL connection chained to a connection obtained from a connection factory 
 * with a protocol "XYZ".
 * SSL-http
Create an SSL connection chained to a HTTP connection (aka https)
 * SSL-ALPN
Create an SSL connection chained to a ALPN connection, that uses a negotiation with
 * the client to determine the next protocol.
 *
