support zeromq ipc
This might not be of interest for too many, but I want to use the ipc:///tmp/foo.sock
style zeromq backend.
Just hacking ZMQ.hs and TestAPI.hs to allow this style results in the test hanging, so some work needs to be done.
Hello, thanks for a request! I'm going to address it.
PR #28 introduces an support for IPC backend, however multicast support still missing, and socket is created for each endpoint (like a socket per endpoint in TCP) backend. I think with recent changes in zeromq it's possible to improve a situation, but it will be a middle-term solution.
@qnikst thanks a lot! This is really useful for me, and I do not need multicast, only secure local IPC.
There are few problems reported by Travis,I'll have to address them before it will be merged, I hope to do it soon, but generally all basic things are working atm.
