ZMQ_IDENTITY: Set socket identity
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The 'ZMQ_IDENTITY' option shall set the identity of the specified 'socket'.
Socket identity is used only by request/reply pattern. Namely, it can be used
in tandem with ROUTER socket to route messages to the peer with specific
identity.
The 'ZMQ_IDENTITY' option shall set the identity of the specified 'socket'
when connecting to a ROUTER socket. The identity should be from 1 to 255
bytes long and MAY NOT start with binary zero.
Identity should be at least one byte and at most 255 bytes long. Identities
starting with binary zero are reserved for use by 0MQ infrastructure.
If two peers use the same identity when connecting to a third peer, the
results shall be undefined.
If two clients use the same identity when connecting to a ROUTER, the
ROUTER socket shall accept only the first such client and reject the
others.
