I'm still lacking rust knowledge to assess. Summoning @ikolomi to give a bless. |

Use `Arc` instead of `Box` to wrap the `ClientAdapter`, so that the lifetime of the adapter will be extended even in cases where the client is closed during commands. This also saves on using `as usize` conversions to the pointer, which cause provenance to be lost and might lead to undefined behavior. Signed-off-by: Shachar Langbeheim <[email protected]>
