/*

This is a Java class called "ReadThread" that reads incoming messages from a

socket connection. It creates an input stream from the socket's input stream,

and wraps it in a BufferedReader for more efficient reading. The run method

reads lines from the input stream in a loop, and prints them to the console

along with the client's username, if it's available. If there's an IOException,

it will print the error message, and the loop will be broken.
