 The `host_init_func` is automatically called when app-manager startup. And `host_send_fun` will be called by app-manager to send data to host anytime.
 >Note: Currently since app-manager will keep running and never exit, `host_destroy_fun` has no chance to get executed. So you can leave this API implementation empty.
