Initiates a connection using the socket descriptor socket, which must be a
valid socket descriptor created with
socket_create().
The address parameter is either an IP address in dotted-quad notation
(e.g. 127.0.0.1), if the socket is of the AF_INET family; or the pathname
of a Unix-domain socket, if the socket family is AF_UNIX.
The port parameter is only used when connecting to an
AF_INET socket, and designates the port on the remote host to which a connection should be
made.
Returns zero on success, or a negative error code on failure. This code may be passed to
socket_strerror() to get a textual explanation
of the error.
See also socket_bind(), socket_listen(),
socket_create(), socket_get_status(),
and socket_strerror().
