// Listen is a convenience interface for applications to create service endpoints
// which can be easily used with existing networking code.
//
// Listen registers a new service endpoint on the beam connection `conn`, using the
// service name `name`. It returns a listener which can be used in the usual
// way. Calling Accept() on the listener will block until a new connection is available
// on the service endpoint. The endpoint is then returned as a regular net.Conn and
// can be used as a regular network connection.
//
// Note that if the underlying file descriptor received in attachment is nil or does
// not point to a connection, that message will be skipped.
