Notes:
	* Sets the prefix attached to this addon.
	* This can only be called once, and must be called before sending any messages.
	* Each addon must have its own prefix, they cannot be shared.
	* Prefixes must be 3 bytes and should be unique for your addon.
Arguments:
	string - Prefix of the addon if you are to send comm messages. Must be 3 bytes.
Example:
	MyAddon:SetCommPrefix("MAd")

Notes:
	* Registers a list of strings to be memoized.
	* This is useful because it can turn a longer string into a shorter string and as long as both sides have the proper memoizations registered, it will show up properly.
	* Sending a normal string has a cost of 2 + length. Sending a memoized string has a cost of 4.
	* If you register a tablized comm handler, the commands specified are automatically memoized.
Arguments:
	tuple or table - list of strings to be memoized.
Example:
	MyAddon:RegisterMemoizations("Register", "Version", "WARRIOR", "ROGUE", "Monkey")
	-- or
	MyAddon:RegisterMemoizations { "Register", "Version", "WARRIOR", "ROGUE", "Monkey" }
	-- now if I ever choose to send through one of these words, it will be properly memoized.

Notes:
	* Sends a comm message to the appropriate stream determined by "distribution".
	* The messages are properly encoded to handle special characters like |, \000, and \n, then serialized so that any value can be sent through (not just strings), then properly split up if it is too large and datagrammed onto multiple messages.
	* Messages are properly throttled so that not too much is sent across at once.
	* This uses a NORMAL priority unless :SetDefaultCommPriority is called.
	* Do not be afraid to send more than one value, it is typically much cleaner to do so. e.g. sending "WARRIOR hits 42" is actually a lot less optimized than sending "WARRIOR", "hits", 42.
	* If you choose to use memoization (recommended), messages are transparently memoized an dememoized properly.
	* Messages sent over the stream won't trigger the OnCommReceive (or whatever you called it) function for the sender, even if you technically receive it, unless you whisper to yourself.
Arguments:
	string - distribution type that is used. One of "WHISPER", "GUILD", or "GROUP".
	string - person to whisper to (only used with "WHISPER").
	tuple - arguments to pass through.
Returns:
	boolean - whether the message properly sends through.
Example:
	MyAddon:SendCommMessage("GUILD", "Message", 52, { alpha = "bravo" }) -- sends the values across the guild stream.
	MyAddon:SendCommMessage("WHISPER", "Ckknight", "Here is my message") -- whispers a message to Ckknight.

-- ChatThrottleLib by Mikk
--
-- Manages AddOn chat output to keep player from getting kicked off.
--
-- ChatThrottleLib.SendChatMessage/.SendAddonMessage functions that accept
-- a Priority ("BULK", "NORMAL", "ALERT") as well as prefix for SendChatMessage.
--
-- Priorities get an equal share of available bandwidth when fully loaded.
-- Communication channels are separated on extension+chattype+destination and
-- get round-robinned. (Destination only matters for whispers and channels,
-- obviously)
--
-- Will install hooks for SendChatMessage and SendAdd[Oo]nMessage to measure
-- bandwidth bypassing the library and use less bandwidth itself.
--
--
-- Fully embeddable library. Just copy this file into your addon directory,
-- add it to the .toc, and it's done.
--
-- Can run as a standalone addon also, but, really, just embed it! :-)
