#1020: UNIX socket support

 When backend and varnish are running on the same mashine, it would make
 sense to let to communicate both through the local UNIX socket. Possible
 declaration in the VCL would look like

 backend default {
     .sock = "/tmp/backend.sock";
 }

 This would be also match the #1019 for fcgi, so the declaration could look
 like

 backend default {
     .sock = "/tmp/backend.sock";
     .type = "fcgi";
 }

 so performance could go up by this two things.
