test and debug medley networking code

[masinter]

This is a placeholder for comments and elaboration of ideas for how to restore Medley networking functions.

There is the "Dodo" project which has multiple server implementations.

The ContraltoJS project includes an alto emulator that could be used to wire up Medley implementations of PUP protocols.

Other "network" issues

#573 Set up and test networking
#786 need TCPOPS

Here's a summary of the situation -- please update

There are three protocol "stacks" -- PUP, XNS, and TCP/IP.
There are Lisp implementations of XNS and PUP based on packet-level SUBRs in Maiko.
The SUBRs though are based on an obsolete Sun interface (?). TCP/IP has a similar situation

Getting the network running isn't very interesting unless we can talk to other instances of medley or some of he other XNS or PUP implementations.

Loading networking files were moved to the end of LOADUP-LISP.

We took NFS and X11 support out of Medley because they were older versions.
