        Return the unique channel ID of the underlying transport. This is used to
        mitigate credential forwarding man-in-the-middle attacks when running
        application level authentication (eg WAMP-cryptosign) which are decoupled
        from the underlying transport.

        The channel ID is only available when running over TLS (either WAMP-WebSocket
        or WAMP-RawSocket). It is not available for non-TLS transports (plain TCP or
        Unix domain sockets). It is also not available for WAMP-over-HTTP/Longpoll.
        Further, it is currently unimplemented for asyncio (only works on Twisted).

        The channel ID is computed as follows:

           - for a client, the SHA256 over the "TLS Finished" message sent by the client
             to the server is returned.

           - for a server, the SHA256 over the "TLS Finished" message the server expected
             the client to send

        Note: this is similar to `tls-unique` as described in RFC5929, but instead
        of returning the raw "TLS Finished" message, it returns a SHA256 over such a
        message. The reason is that we use the channel ID mainly with WAMP-cryptosign,
        which is based on Ed25519, where keys are always 32 bytes. And having a channel ID
        which is always 32 bytes (independent of the TLS ciphers/hashfuns in use) allows
        use to easily XOR channel IDs with Ed25519 keys and WAMP-cryptosign challenges.

        WARNING: For safe use of this (that is, for safely binding app level authentication
        to the underlying transport), you MUST use TLS, and you SHOULD deactivate both
        TLS session renegotiation and TLS session resumption.
