  Description             : minimal cross-platform eventing, networking and cryptography library
µSockets is a minimal, cross-platform async networking library used
as the foundation for µWebSockets. It provides a unified event loop
abstraction over epoll, kqueue, libuv, io_uring, and GCD backends,
with support for TCP, SSL/TLS and QUIC.
.
The library is designed for high-performance networked applications
and exposes a low-level C API with pluggable event loop backends.
Optional backends are selected at build time via compile-time flags
(WITH_LIBUV, WITH_OPENSSL, etc.).
.
This package is required by libuwebsockets-dev (ITP filed
separately), which in turn is required by purritobin (ITP filed
separately).
