container for a message, its headers, agent, collective and other meta data
payload - the message body without headers etc, just the text message - the original message received from the middleware options[:base64] - if the body base64 encoded? options[:agent] - the agent the message is for/from options[:collective] - the collective its for/from options[:headers] - the message headers options[:type] - an indicator about the type of message, :message, :request, :direct_request or :reply options[:request] - if this is a reply this should old the message we are replying to options[:filter] - for requests, the filter to encode into the message options[:options] - the normal client options hash options[:ttl] - the maximum amount of seconds this message can be valid for options[:expected_msgid] - in the case of replies this is the msgid it is expecting in the replies options[:requestid] - specific request id to use else one will be generated

in the case of reply messages we are expecting replies to a previously created message. This stores a hint to that previously sent message id and can be used by other classes like the security plugins as a means of optimizing their behavior like by ignoring messages not directed at us.

Sets the message type to one of the known types. In the case of :direct_request the list of hosts to communicate with should have been set with discovered_hosts else an exception will be raised. This is for extra security, we never accidentally want to send a direct request without a list of hosts or something weird like that as it might result in a filterless broadcast being sent.
Additionally you simply cannot set :direct_request if direct_addressing was not enabled this is to force a workflow that doesnt not yield in a mistake when someone might assume direct_addressing is enabled when its not.
