cc #519
cc @lexnv @skunert (you are the two embedders of smoldot that I know of)
Smoldot now supports restarting some services if they crash (of course this is done properly, so JSON-RPC functions send back errors and things like that). Consequently, if a task panics, you are encouraged to not just propagate panics and let the thread crash, but instead silently drop the task and continue running.
I've considered instead adding
.catch_unwind
internally within smoldot's code everywhere relevant, but I think that it's better to make the embedder aware of this.
