(** Rate limiters *)
(** This module defines rate limiters. A rate limiter is parametrized
by its limit and a maximum waiting time. The [wait] function will
collaboratively hang for a delay necessary to respect the
limit. If that delay exceeds the maximum waiting time, [wait]
returns [false]; otherwise it returns [true]. *)
