[components][rust] fuchsia_component method rename

[Adam Lesinski]

If you don't write components in Rust, you can skip reading this email.

TL;DR: The `connect_to_service` family of methods in the `fuchsia_component` crate are being renamed to `connect_to_protocol`.

FIDL has been using the term protocol for a while now, and the term "service" has been reserved for what was originally known as "unified services".

This change, along with follow up changes, will bring the Rust component client libraries in-line with FIDL terminology.

Other languages will follow soon.

Thank you so much for doing this! :D

Woohoo! This is awesome, this has bugged me for quite a while as I try to keep "protocols" and "services" differentiated in my mind.

I could use some help with this, as I will be OOO for the next few weeks. If you have the energy to help make the change in the fidl crate, that would be great!

Hi Adam,

Are you planning to make changes in the Rust FIDL bindings as well?

We use "service name" a lot in src/lib/fidl/rust/fidl/src/endpoints.rs where I think it really should be "protocol name". This also came up here:

I'm happy to help with this.

Sure, I can do it. Filed https://bugs.fuchsia.dev/p/fuchsia/issues/detail?id=75869 to track.

Update: I'm now working on the protocol/service rename for FIDL Rust (fxr/559038), and hope to land it tomorrow or on the weekend.

[Mitchell Kember]

The last update was about renaming "service" to "protocol" in the FIDL Rust traits.

I'm now landing the next step, renaming "unified service" to simply "service", in fxr/569501. Let me know if you have any concerns.
