Willy Tarreau 910c64da96 MEDIUM: protocol: store the socket and control type in the protocol array
The protocol array used to be only indexed by socket family, which is very
problematic with UDP (requiring an extra family) and with the forthcoming
QUIC (also requiring an extra family), especially since that binds them to
certain families, prevents them from supporting dgram UNIX sockets etc.

In order to address this, we now start to register the protocols with more
info, namely the socket type and the control type (either stream or dgram).
This is sufficient for the protocols we have to deal with, but could also
be extended further if multiple protocol variants were needed. But as is,
it still fits nicely in an array, which is convenient for lookups that are
instant.

The HAProxy documentation has been split into a number of different files for
ease of use.

Please refer to the following files depending on what you're looking for :

  - INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install HAProxy
  - BRANCHES to understand the project's life cycle and what version to use
  - LICENSE for the project's license
  - CONTRIBUTING for the process to follow to submit contributions

The more detailed documentation is located into the doc/ directory :

  - doc/intro.txt for a quick introduction on HAProxy
  - doc/configuration.txt for the configuration's reference manual
  - doc/lua.txt for the Lua's reference manual
  - doc/SPOE.txt for how to use the SPOE engine
  - doc/network-namespaces.txt for how to use network namespaces under Linux
  - doc/management.txt for the management guide
