// Package loopback provides the implemention of loopback data-link layer
// endpoints. Such endpoints just turn outbound packets into inbound ones.
//
// Loopback endpoints can be used in the networking stack by calling New() to
// create a new endpoint, and then passing it as an argument to
// Stack.CreateNIC().
