Support Unix sockets in --url

[jo-so]

I would like to access my database via Unix socket. This requires to use a path as hostname, but not all path characters are valid for a hostname. Rust's r2d2 database driver uses an URL-encoded form of the hostname like: postgres://joerg@%2Frun%2Fpostgresql:5433/codimd?application_name=CodiMD. Maybe you could support this, too. Or use a query parameter for this.

Sequelize itself supports a socket given as a host parameter like:

postgres://postgres@/unstoppable_website_development?host=/tmp

But not sequelize-cli

Its weird that sequelize-cli doesn't reuse that code from sequelize itself.

@jo-so I don't have infinite time at my hand. I will appreciate a PR with proper test

Does the feature tag keep away the stale bot?

Yes, but issues will be disabled soon and only PRs will be accepted, so it wont matter if issue is closed or open
