* There are no CAP connections anymore. The only situation where CAP
* connections were created was inside old-fashioned servers that used
* to create an 'Rpc_entrypoint' manually. The 'Rpc_entrypoint' requires
* a CAP session as constructor argument. We accommodate this use case
* by allocating RPC capabilities from the server's protection domain.
*
* Modern components no longer create 'Rpc_entrypoint' objects directly
* but instead use the new 'Entrypoint' interface.
