previously, hostname and ip strings were shuffled to the msg object, which
created a property out of them. Now the cache holds the property, and it
is resused (almost) everywhere, what saves a lot of memory operations.
The only exception is imtcp session setup, where different handling
of the hostname is done, which we need to sort out (but that's another
story).
this still has a couple of weaknesses, like no size limit, no expiration
of entries, suboptimal algorithms -- but it should perform better than
what we had previously. Implementation will be improved based on
feedback during the next couple of releases
The capability has been added for module to specify that they do not
like being unloaded.

support for enhancing probability of memory addressing failure by
using non-NULL default value for malloced memory (optional, only if
requested by configure option). This helps to track down some
otherwise undetected issues within the testbench and is expected
to be very useful in the future.
The TLS server now checks the client fingerprint. This works, but
is highly experimental. Needs to be refined for practice. Also:
- implemented permittedPeers helper construct to store names
- changed omfwd implementation to use new permittedPeers
- made action logic pass optional auth params only if they are
actually configured
- added new authMode and Fingerprint methods to ptcp netstream
driver (keeping them once again generic)
- added diagnostics messages when invalid auth modes were
configured
the new structure prevents repetitive loads and unloads of
driver files; it also has less overhead
The "select" and regular driver are now contained in a single
file.
... at least in some cases ;) I assume there are still a couple
of bugs inside the code. But at least we have something from
where we can continue to work on.
The objects for receiver-side socket abstraction have now be
specified. The project as whole does not yet compile and
definitely not run, but I'd like to commit some milestones along
this way.
