[RFA] Remote UDP support


A patch for this feature was supported a year or so ago, but never went in. 
I had a need for this a couple of days ago, so I did it over from scratch;
it's much easier now than it was at the time.  The name of ser-tcp.c is a
bit wrong after this patch; I can either rename the file to ser-net.c or
just update some comments to match.  Got a preference?  Otherwise OK?

	* ser-tcp.c: Include <netinet/udp.h>.  Rename tcp_open
	and tcp_close to net_open and net_close.
	(net_open): Accept "udp:" and "tcp:" specifications.  Connect
	using UDP if requested.  Don't try to disable Nagle on UDP
	sockets.
