Hi folks, In kata-containers we are using (a very old version of) the api_client crate as part of our cloud-hypervisor work in our new(ish) rust based runtime (see https://github.com/kata-containers/kata-containers/blob/e430b2641c452f168148c8d18c5d33e42ff991f2/src/runtime-rs/crates/hypervisor/ch-config/Cargo.toml#L20-L24 for the exact usage).
The usage seems pretty small and limited to:

use api_client::{
    simple_api_full_command_and_response, simple_api_full_command_with_fds_and_response,
};

as far as I can tell.

This work was done by members of the community who left the project a long time ago and someone raised a suggestion today that this approach was taken against the wishes of the cloud-hypervisor community as this crate is internal for you we should not be using it. Is this the case? Obviously we want to respect your community, so ensure that we don't "support", or try and update the api_client crate if we shouldn't be using it.

Thanks!
