A runtime identity of a game server.
This identity denotes the minimum set of attributes where if two different Server instances have all of them equal, then they effectively refer to the same, actual game server.
In simpler words: if the program has discovered the same server twice, for example: via the game's master server and via a LAN broadcast, it may end up with two Server objects that effectively point to the same server. This identity can be used to compare the Server objects, and if it proves to be equal, the Server objects can be merged (or one of them discarded).
The "runtime" part here refers to this being valid within the current runtime only. For performance reasons it compares the server's game by its plugin pointer.
