A Server element represents the entire Catalina
servlet container. Its attributes represent the characteristics of
the servlet container as a whole. A Server may contain
one or more Services, and the top level set of naming
resources.
Normally, an implementation of this interface will also implement
Lifecycle, such that when the start() and
stop() methods are called, all of the defined
Services are also started or stopped.
In between, the implementation must open a server socket on the port number
specified by the port property. When a connection is accepted,
the first line is read and compared with the specified shutdown command.
If the command matches, shutdown of the server is initiated.
NOTE - The concrete implementation of this class should
register the (singleton) instance with the ServerFactory
class in its constructor(s).
