socket: A binding to the POSIX sockets interface

This package provides access to the system's socket interface with POSIX semantics.

The library is designed to be threadsafe and establishes a thin layer on top of the underlying ccalls to help with the development of concurrent applications. It integrates with GHC's event management mechanism (which itself uses epoll or libev or similar) and makes all functions have blocking semantics without actually blocking the runtime system.
