// The instrumentation parameters:
//  - errCancel:   error type to return if the fetch operation is cancelled (mostly makes logging nicer)
//  - deliveryCh:  channel from which to retrieve downloaded data packets (merged from all concurrent peers)
//  - deliver:     processing callback to deliver data packets into type specific download queues (usually within `queue`)
//  - wakeCh:      notification channel for waking the fetcher when new tasks are available (or sync completed)
//  - expire:      task callback method to abort requests that took too long and return the faulty peers (traffic shaping)
//  - pending:     task callback for the number of requests still needing download (detect completion/non-completability)
//  - inFlight:    task callback for the number of in-progress requests (wait for all active downloads to finish)
//  - throttle:    task callback to check if the processing queue is full and activate throttling (bound memory use)
//  - reserve:     task callback to reserve new download tasks to a particular peer (also signals partial completions)
//  - fetchHook:   tester callback to notify of new tasks being initiated (allows testing the scheduling logic)
//  - fetch:       network callback to actually send a particular download request to a physical remote peer
//  - cancel:      task callback to abort an in-flight download request and allow rescheduling it (in case of lost peer)
//  - capacity:    network callback to retrieve the estimated type-specific bandwidth capacity of a peer (traffic shaping)
//  - idle:        network callback to retrieve the currently (type specific) idle peers that can be assigned tasks
//  - setIdle:     network callback to set a peer back to idle and update its estimated capacity (traffic shaping)
//  - kind:        textual label of the type being downloaded to display in log mesages
