-TESTS
------
-Use these tests to test functionality of the various tcp plugins
-
-* server: nc -l -p 3000
-  client: nc localhost 3000
-  everything you type in the server is shown on the client
-  everything you type in the client is shown on the server

-* server: nc -l -p 3000
-  client: gst-launch tcpclientsrc protocol=none port=3000 ! fdsink fd=2
-  everything you type in the server is shown on the client

-- implement DNS resolution

-multifdsink
------------
-- operation:
-  - client fd gets added when "add" signal gets emitted on multifdsink
-  - signal handler creates a GstTCPClient structure, adds it to ->clients,
-    and adds the fd to ->fd_hash, then emits client-added
-  - client 
-
-  - when a buffer comes in:
-    - the _render vmethod puts the buffer on the global queue
-    - and increases bytes_to_serve
-    - (currently it sets streamheaders, but since this is treated globally
-       this is wrong - clients can be at different positions in the stream)
-
-  - when a client issues a write (ie requests data):
-    - when using GDP, if no caps sent yet, send caps first, then set caps_sent
-    - if streamheader buffers, and we haven't sent yet to this client,
-      send current streamheader buffers, then set streamheader_sent
-    - send out buffers
