Problem: disconnect & unbind doc is misleading

Make it explicit that the two functions are identical.
Also document the expected disconnect behavior extensively
and illustrate the difference between disconnecting a
connected vs. bound endpoint.

associated with the endpoint will be discarded. However, if the socket's linger
period is non-zero, libzmq will still attempt to transmit these discarded messages,
until the linger period expires.
Addionally, if the disconnected endpoint was previously connected to
(as opposed to bound), the incoming message queue associated with the
endpoint will be discarded. This means that after unbinding an endpoint
using `disconnect`, it is possible to received messages originating
from that same endpoint if they were already present in the incoming message
queue before unbinding. However, this is not the case when disconnecting
from a connected endpoint.
