Fix network wrt abstract unix sockets
The network library works well with unix sockets, but doesn't work with abstract unix sockets -- a linux extension. AUS are identified by that that the unix path starts with a zero, and not being zero terminated. Thus not compatible with the current network code.
This proposal includes a patch that will add abstract unix support to the network library.
