Daniel's patch(commit 6701e551, Revert "Change net/socket.c to use socket_*() 
functions" again) has been in upstream. Continue this patchset.

In v2, this series convert the non-blocking connect mechanism to QIOchannel 
by replace the socket_connect(), and some errors also are converted to Error. 

The v2 related discussion was listed on:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2017-04/msg04886.html

v4: 
* PATCH 01 is redoing previous patch 1, replace the fprintf() with error_report()
		     in the 'default' case of net_socket_fd_init() [Markus Armbruster]

v3:
* PATCH 01 is suggested by Markus and Daniel that removes the dubious 'default' case
           in the net_socket_fd_init(). Jason agreed.
* PATCH 02 is redoing previous patch 4.
* PATCH 04 is redoing previous patch 2, improves sort of error messages. 

v2:
* PATCH 02 reworking of patch 2 following Markus's suggestion that convert error_report()
           in the function called by net_socket_*_init() to Error. Also add many error 
           handling information.
* PATCH 03 net_socket_mcast_create(), net_socket_fd_init_dgram() and net_socket_fd_init() 
           use the function such as fprintf, perror to report an error message. Convert it 
           to Error.
* PATCH 04 parse_host_port() may fail without reporting an error. Now, fix it to set an
           error when it fails.
