* ==== Security Considerations
*
* If a relayer submits a forward request, it should be willing to pay up to 100% of the gas amount
* specified in the request. This contract does not implement any kind of retribution for this gas,
* and it is assumed that there is an out of band incentive for relayers to pay for execution on
* behalf of signers. Often, the relayer is operated by a project that will consider it a user
* acquisition cost.
*
* By offering to pay for gas, relayers are at risk of having that gas used by an attacker toward
* some other purpose that is not aligned with the expected out of band incentives. If you operate a
* relayer, consider whitelisting target contracts and function selectors. When relaying ERC-721 or
* ERC-1155 transfers specifically, consider rejecting the use of the `data` field, since it can be
* used to execute arbitrary code.
