This PR adds the option to only relay specific packets that are of interest to the app developer.
In order to avoid unnecessary development and maintenance overhead, the filtering mechanism is left entirely to the app developer.
This is achieved by defining a new function type:
PacketFilterthat takes aPacketas an argument and returnstrueif it should be relayed andfalseif it should be ignored.Implementation of this function is left to the application developer and can be used by setting it via
link.setFilter(packetFilter: PacketFilter)on theLinkinstance.This PR also includes the complementary
Link.clearFilter()method.
