/**
* The Java representation of the
* <a href="https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/comms.html#messageport">
* HTML5 message ports.</a>
*
* A Message port represents one endpoint of a Message Channel. In Android
* webview, there is no separate Message Channel object. When a message channel
* is created, both ports are tangled to each other and started, and then
* returned in a MessagePort array, see {@link WebView#createWebMessageChannel}
* for creating a message channel.
*
* When a message port is first created or received via transfer, it does not
* have a WebMessageCallback to receive web messages. The messages are queued until
* a WebMessageCallback is set.
*
* A message port should be closed when it is not used by the embedder application
* anymore. A closed port cannot be transferred or cannot be reopened to send
* messages. Close can be called multiple times.
*
* When a port is transferred to JS, it cannot be used to send or receive messages
* at the Java side anymore. Different from HTML5 Spec, a port cannot be transferred
* if one of these has ever happened: i. a message callback was set, ii. a message was
* posted on it. A transferred port cannot be closed by the application, since
* the ownership is also transferred.
*
* It is possible to transfer both ports of a channel to JS, for example for
* communication between subframes.
