Module direct_session 

Direct connections session. Manages the creation of direct sessions. Used to create a direct session and to stop and start the session.

A direct session is a type of outbound session in which a protocol can open a temporary channel (stopped after used) to a peer. Direct sessions do not loop continually, once stopped the session will not try to reopen a connection.

If there is no slots in the outbound session, the direct session can optionally handle peer discovery.
