Volker Lendecke	6dcf2c7eab	lib: Add unix_msg ... This is a messaging layer based on unix domain datagram sockets. Sending to an idle socket is just one single nonblocking sendmsg call. If the recv queue is full, we start a background thread to do a blocking call. The source4 based imessaging uses a polling fallback. In a situation where thousands of senders beat one single blocked socket, this will generate load on the system due to the constant polling. This does not happen with a threaded blocking send call. The threaded approach has another advantage: We save become_root() calls on the retries. The access checks are done when the blocking socket is connected, the threaded blocking send call does not check permissions anymore.
