Details

When some async messages are sent to the plugin, a related response is expected to later be received.

The parent GMP code can start a timer before calling a SendX method, and stop it when the related RecvX is called.
If the timer fires we can assume the plugin is malfunctioning and we should probably terminate it and hopefully get a useful report -- or take other actions as appropriate.
