Example of using glinda to test a service.

    Simple handler that makes a few asynchronous requests.

    The "backing" service is configured by setting the ``SERVICE_NETLOC``
    environment variable to the host and port of the service endpoint.
    This is pretty typical for 12 Factor Applications and it makes it
    very easy to test the service using ``glinda``.
