-- An implementation of MQTT 3.1.1
-- https://docs.oasis-open.org/mqtt/mqtt/v3.1.1/os/mqtt-v3.1.1-os.html
--
-- This library does not currently implement the entire MQTT protocol,
-- only those control packets which are necessary for existing scripts
-- are included. Extending to accommodate additional control packets
-- should not be difficult.
