+%% @doc Behaviour for sub protocols.
+%%
+%% Only one function needs to be implemented, <em>upgrade/4</em>.
+%% It receives the Req, the environment, the handler that the request has been
+%% routed to and the handler's options. It acts exactly the same as a
+%% middleware, so returns the same values a middleware's execute/2.
+%%
+%% Once the sub protocol has processed the request it should add the result
+%% to the environment. This is done by adding the tuple {result, Value} to the
+%% environment list. To continue handling requests on the current connection the
+%% Value should be the atom ok. Any other value will prevent the processing of
+%% subsequent requests.
+%%
+%% <em>upgrade/4</em> will be called when a handler's init/3 returns
+%% {upgrade, protocol, Module}, where Module is the module of the sub protocol.
