5570	Support adding an established SOCK_STREAM connection to the reactor	exarkun	therve	"Certain multi-process models want to be able to move established connections (TCP, UNIX, whatever) between processes.  There aren't any public APIs for this now, so we should add one.

#5248 added `IReactorSocket.adoptStreamPort`.  We should also add `IReactorSocket.addConnection`.  It would have a similar signature to `adopStreamPort` (but likely without the `socketType` argument, since it would always have to be `SOCK_STREAM`) , but treat the file descriptor as a `SOCK_STREAM` socket which is already connected to a peer.  The reactor would do whatever necessary to start processing events from that socket, just as it would do for a socket it accepted internally from a port it was managing.
