Issues adressed:
- The actual data was never read from the socket, causing all even
numbered loop iterations to fail
- The socket variable was called server once
The new options allows querying the maximum allowed number of sockets.
This is system dependent and cannot be encoded in the include file as a
preprocessor macro: for ZMQ_USE_SELECT, this depends on the FD_SETSIZE
macro at time of library compilation, not at time of include file use.
When a ZMQ_STREAM socket connection is broken (intentionally, via `shutdown()`
or accidentally via client crash or network failure), there is no way for the
application to dertermine that it should drop per-connection data (such as
buffers).
This contribution makes sure the application receives a 0-length message to
notify it that the connection has been broken. This is symmetric with the
process of closing the connection from within the application (where the
application sends a 0-length message to tell ZeroMQ to close the connection).

- This seems redundant; is there a use case for NOT providing
the IPC credentials to the ZAP authenticator?
- More, why is IPC authentication done via libzmq instead of ZAP?
Is it because we're missing the transport type on the ZAP request?
Another take on LIBZMQ-568 to allow filtering IPC connections, this time
using ZAP. This change is backward compatible. If the
ZMQ_ZAP_IPC_CREDS option is set, the user, group, and process IDs of the
peer process are appended to the address (separated by colons) of a ZAP
request; otherwise, nothing changes. See LIBZMQ-568 and zmq_setsockopt
documentation for more information.
Documentation examples for zmq_msg_get and zmq_msg_more functions have an
incorrect call to zmq_msg_close function - with 'zmq_msg_t' as a parameter
despite 'zmq_msg_t *' is required, so it is impossible to compile these
examples properly.
Also for zmq_msg_get example - declaration of zmq_msg_t variable is added
(like it is done in other examples).
* ZMQ_REQ_STRICT was negative option (default 1) which goes against
the standard, where defaults are zero. I renamed this to
ZMQ_REQ_RELAXED.
* ZMQ_REQ_REQUEST_IDS felt clumsy and describes the technical solution
rather than the problem/requirement. I changed to ZMQ_REQ_CORRELATE
which seems more explicit.
