Socket service creation

A socket service object is an encapsulation of a user-defined processor for a list of sockets.

    val create_socket_service : Netplex_types.processor ->
           Netplex_types.socket_service_config -> Netplex_types.socket_service

Create the socket service (usually only internally used)

    val create_server_socket : string ->
           Netplex_types.protocol -> Netplex_types.extended_address -> Unix.file_descr

`create_server_socket service_name proto addr`: Creates a server socket as specified in `proto` for the address `addr` and returns it.

Addresses of type ``Container` are not supported.

    val close_server_socket : Unix.file_descr -> unit

Closes a socket as opened with `create_server_socket`

    val any_file_client_connector : string -> Rpc_client.connector

Interprets a file name as connector for a local RPC service. The file must either be a Unix Domain socket, or it must be a text file as written by Netplex with the details of the service endpoint.

    val client_connector : Netplex_types.extended_address -> Rpc_client.connector

Returns the RPC client connector for this Netplex address
