portably create pipe() or pipe-like handles
Description:
IO::Pipely provides a couple functions to portably create one- and
two-way pipes and pipe-like socket pairs. It acknowledges and works
around known platform issues so you don't have to.
IO::Pipely currently understands pipe(), UNIX-domain socketpair()
and regular IPv4 localhost sockets.
