[JDEV] adding authentication associated with a tranport.

[Oliver George]

to give you an idea, look at this diff...

and this is the addition to io_select.c


void io_write_null(sock c)
{
       if(c->xbuffer!=NULL) _io_write_dump(c);
       pth_write(c->fd,"\0",1);
}

these changes will be included with a namespace switch, initially i'm 
just compiling as a separate .so and listening on a separate socket.

Hope this is useful. Oliver.
