// NewRateLimiter creates a new rate limiter based on leaky bucket algorithm, formulated in terms of a
// credits balance that is replenished every time CheckCredit() method is called (tick) by the amount proportional
// to the time elapsed since the last tick, up to max of creditsPerSecond. A call to CheckCredit() takes a cost
// of an item we want to pay with the balance. If the balance exceeds the cost of the item, the item is "purchased"
// and the balance reduced, indicated by returned value of true. Otherwise the balance is unchanged and return false.
//
// This can be used to limit a rate of messages emitted by a service by instantiating the Rate Limiter with the
// max number of messages a service is allowed to emit per second, and calling CheckCredit(1.0) for each message
// to determine if the message is within the rate limit.
//
// It can also be used to limit the rate of traffic in bytes, by setting creditsPerSecond to desired throughput
// as bytes/second, and calling CheckCredit() with the actual message size.
