In commit 09954a87c I introduced the portfwdmgr_connect_socket()
system, which opened a port forwarding given a callback to create the
Socket itself, with the aim of using it to make forwardings to Unix-
domain sockets and Windows named pipes (both initially for agent
forwarding).
But I forgot that a year and a bit ago, in commit 834396170, I already
introduced a similar low-level system for creating a PortForwarding
around an unusual kind of socket: the portfwd_raw_new() system, which
in place of a callback uses a two-phase setup protocol (you create the
socket in between the two setup calls, and can roll it back if the
socket can't be created).
There's really no need to have _both_ these systems! So now I'm
merging them, which is to say, I'm enhancing portfwd_raw_new to have
the one new feature it needs, and throwing away the newer system
completely. The new feature is to be able to control the initial state
of the 'ready' flag: portfwd_raw_new was always used for initiating
port forwardings in response to an incoming local connection, which
means you need to start off with ready=false and set it true when the
other end of the SSH connection sends back OPEN_CONFIRMATION. Now it's
being used for initiating port forwardings in response to a
CHANNEL_OPEN, we need to be able to start with ready=true.
This commit reverts 09954a87c2 and its
followup fix 12aa06ccc9, and simplifies
the agent_connect system down to a single trivial function that makes
a Socket given a Plug.
