At present, the definition of `Device` is heavily nested with conditional code. I've found this hard to understand and navigate. Recent refactorings now made it possible to remove a lot of these layers so we primarily deal with two concepts: - A `Device` which offers async read and non-blocking write functions - A `Tun` abstraction which is platform-specific Instead of dedicated modules, I chose to feature-flag individual functions on `Device` with `#[cfg(target_family = "unix")]` and `#[cfg(target_family = "windows")]`. I find this easier to understand because the code is right next to each other. In addition, changing the module hierarchy of `Device` allows us to remove `async` from the public API which is only introduced by the use of `rtnetlink` in Linux. Instead of making functions across all `Tun` implementations `async`, we embed a "worker" within the `linux::Tun` implementation that gets polled before `poll_read`. --------- Co-authored-by: Gabi <gabrielalejandro7@gmail.com>
