A virtual CAN bus using an internal message queue. It can be used for
example for testing.
In this interface, a channel is an arbitrary object used as
an identifier for connected buses.
Implements :meth:`can.BusABC._detect_available_configs`; see
:meth:`_detect_available_configs` for how it
behaves here.
.. note::
The timeout when sending a message applies to each receiver
individually. This means that sending can block up to 5 seconds
if a message is sent to 5 receivers with the timeout set to 1.0.
.. warning::
This interface guarantees reliable delivery and message ordering, but
does *not* implement rate limiting or ID arbitration/prioritization
under high loads. Please refer to the section
:ref:`virtual_interfaces_doc` for more information on this and a
comparison to alternatives.

The constructed instance has access to the bus identified by the
channel parameter. It is able to see all messages transmitted on the
bus by virtual instances constructed with the same channel identifier.
:param channel: The channel identifier. This parameter can be an
arbitrary value. The bus instance will be able to see messages
from other virtual bus instances that were created with the same
value.
:param receive_own_messages: If set to True, sent messages will be
reflected back on the input queue.
:param rx_queue_size: The size of the reception queue. The reception
queue stores messages until they are read. If the queue reaches
its capacity, it will start dropping the oldest messages to make
room for new ones. If set to 0, the queue has an infinite capacity.
Be aware that this can cause memory leaks if messages are read
with a lower frequency than they arrive on the bus.
:param preserve_timestamps: If set to True, messages transmitted via
:func:`~can.BusABC.send` will keep the timestamp set in the
:class:`~can.Message` instance. Otherwise, the timestamp value
will be replaced with the current system time.
:param protocol: The protocol implemented by this bus instance. The
value does not affect the operation of the bus instance and can
be set to an arbitrary value for testing purposes.
:param kwargs: Additional keyword arguments passed to the parent
constructor.
