Implementing nsock server mode

Hi,adding server mode support to nsock is something that have beendiscussed a couple times on this list. The patch attached is animplementation proposal.Briefly, I introduced two new functions to nsock.The first one (nsock_listen()) is a regular nsock event registrationfunction that binds a socket to the desired address, enables listeningmode and associate it to the given IOD.The second function (nsock_accept_client()) is aimed to be called fromwithin event handlers corresponding to nsock_listen events. Itbasically does what accept(2) does.In case we decide to land this patch, a couple additional safetychecks and extra comments would be needed, but I think the currentversion can already be interesting to discuss.Regards.-- Henri
