JaeSang Yoo ded0d83e47 Problem: wildcard address with udp not mentioned
* UDP is mentioned as available transport, and it also supports
  wildcard addresses, but not mentioned
* zmq_unbind(7) also mentions about wild-card endpoint in zmq_bind(3)

Solution: add udp in wildcard address related docs

zmq_unbind(3)
==============
NAME
----
zmq_unbind - Stop accepting connections on a socket
SYNOPSIS
--------
int zmq_unbind (void '*socket', const char '*endpoint');
DESCRIPTION
-----------
The _zmq_unbind()_ function shall unbind a socket specified
by the 'socket' argument from the endpoint specified by the 'endpoint'
argument.
Addionally the incoming message queue associated with the endpoint will be
discarded. This means that after unbinding an endpoint it is possible to
received messages originating from that same endpoint if they were already
present in the incoming message queue before unbinding.
The 'endpoint' argument is as described in linkzmq:zmq_bind[3]
Unbinding wild-card address from a socket
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When wild-card `*` 'endpoint' (described in linkzmq:zmq_tcp[7],
linkzmq:zmq_ipc[7], linkzmq:zmq_udp[7] and linkzmq:zmq_vmci[7]) was used in
_zmq_bind()_, the caller should use real 'endpoint' obtained from the
ZMQ_LAST_ENDPOINT socket option to unbind this 'endpoint' from a socket.
RETURN VALUE
------------
The _zmq_unbind()_ function shall return zero if successful. Otherwise it
shall return `-1` and set 'errno' to one of the values defined below.
ERRORS
------
*EINVAL*::
The endpoint supplied is invalid.
*ETERM*::
The 0MQ 'context' associated with the specified 'socket' was terminated.
*ENOTSOCK*::
The provided 'socket' was invalid.
*ENOENT*::
The endpoint supplied was not previously bound.
EXAMPLES
--------
.Unbind a subscriber socket from a TCP transport
----
/* Create a ZMQ_SUB socket */
void *socket = zmq_socket (context, ZMQ_SUB);
assert (socket);
/* Connect it to the host server001, port 5555 using a TCP transport */
rc = zmq_bind (socket, "tcp://127.0.0.1:5555");
assert (rc == 0);
/* Disconnect from the previously connected endpoint */
rc = zmq_unbind (socket, "tcp://127.0.0.1:5555");
assert (rc == 0);
----
.Unbind wild-card `*` binded socket
----
/* Create a ZMQ_SUB socket */
void *socket = zmq_socket (context, ZMQ_SUB);
assert (socket);
/* Bind it to the system-assigned ephemeral port using a TCP transport */
rc = zmq_bind (socket, "tcp://127.0.0.1:*");
assert (rc == 0);
/* Obtain real endpoint */
const size_t buf_size = 32;
char buf[buf_size];
rc = zmq_getsockopt (socket, ZMQ_LAST_ENDPOINT, buf, (size_t *)&buf_size);
assert (rc == 0);
/* Unbind socket by real endpoint */
rc = zmq_unbind (socket, buf);
assert (rc == 0);
----
NOTE
----
Note that while the implementation is similar to _zmq_disconnect()_, the
semantics are different and the two functions should not be used
interchangeably. Bound sockets should be unbound, and connected sockets should
be disconnected.
