/*
  The challenge with making an interface for calling an external program to 
  resolve a DID into a URI is that it really should be asynchronous, so that
  servald can't pause due to delays in looking up DIDs by helper applications.
  
  This can be partially mitigated by having a cache, so that at least for repeated
  requests the helper doesn't need to be called each time.  This is very important
  because the DNA protocol relies on pre-emptive retries to ensure reception of
  a request over a lossy network.

  The second part of the solution is to create an asynchronous queue for requests,
  by passing them via file descriptor to a single persistent instance of the DNA
  helper application, and polling the output of that application for results, and
  then passing them out to their destinations.  This ensures that the process is
  asynchronous and non-blocking, regardless of how much time the helper application
  requires.  Then the helper will just be another file descriptor to poll in the
  main loop.
