title: "Clarify that applications may also expose the protocol, not only connect to a server using the protocol"
As discussed in the related issue, the specification should describe the operations that an application performs. However, it is not fully clear that the application may be a server itself, and expose API, instead of connecting to a server using it. The Kraken example supports writing the API specification from the server's perspective (https://github.com/asyncapi/spec/blob/master/examples/kraken-websocket-request-reply-multiple-channels-asyncapi.yml). This PR refines definition of the application to make it clear that an application may act as a server.
