s_client/s_server: support unix domain sockets

The "-unix <path>" argument allows s_server and s_client to use a unix
domain socket in the filesystem instead of IPv4 ("-connect", "-port",
"-accept", etc). If s_server exits gracefully, such as when "-naccept"
is used and the requested number of SSL/TLS connections have occurred,
then the domain socket file is removed. On ctrl-C, it is likely that
the stale socket file will be left over, such that s_server would
normally fail to restart with the same arguments. For this reason,
s_server also supports an "-unlink" option, which will clean up any
stale socket file before starting.

If you have any reason to want encrypted IPC within an O/S instance,
this concept might come in handy. Otherwise it just demonstrates that
there is nothing about SSL/TLS that limits it to TCP/IP in any way.

(There might also be benchmarking and profiling use in this path, as
unix domain sockets are much lower overhead than connecting over local
IP addresses).
