_ProtocolPlumbing does not implement IHalfCloseableProtocol, leading to the misleading appearance of horrifying race conditions during testing
If you were to make a script of JSON commands for `fanchat` and use the `stdio` endpoint to hook them together into a little test, then do something like

```console
$ cat fcscript.txt | python fanchat.py
```

you would get very weird non-deterministic behavior where half of the output would vanish.

This is because, in the absence of a protocol providing `IHalfCloseableProtocol` as the protocol, "EOF" means "shut down both read *and write* halves of the connection".

Understandably, further writes to the `StandardIO` would be lost.

To remedy this, `IHalfCloseableProtocol` should be implemented - which, by the way, would also allow us to separate the `fount` and `drain` termination on transports which support such a distinction.
