We need a way to let the user indicate that they want a AF_UNIX socket connection. I don't have the Vimscript skills to plumb in an alternate connection command and function, so here's a simple, dumb proof of concept: if the user passes a string starting with nrepl+unix:, we'll pass that string unmodified as the host value when we call the Python script.
Proof of concept. Punting on adding a cleaner path for signaling that the user wants to connect to such a server in favor of the dumbest thing that could work: if the input host string starts with `nrepl+unix:`, use the rest of the string as the socket path.

Resolves #417.
A draft for adding support for connecting to AF_UNIX domain socket nREPL servers (the type that nREPL starts when you provide the
--socket PATHoption).If the user calls
FireplaceConnectwith a string starting withnrepl+unix:, we'll take the remainder of the string as a path to the domain socket and create a Python socketThis is a proof of concept—I imagine we'd like to do something more elegant than a "magic string prefix" to allow users to ask for such a connection and for the Vimscript portion of the plugin to tell the Python portion to initiate one, but we're already pushing up against the limits of my Vimscript and Python skills :)
