Robbie Gemmell commented on PROTON-1646:
----------------------------------------

Another common approach for tests can be for a component to be told to bind a 
free port by itself, with it then offering a way to find out what it was.

> Proactor API needs a way to use an existing socket.

> There are various times when it is necessary to take an existing socket and 
> use it to communicate.
> * The most obvious is when we are started by systemd or inetd and passed the 
> listening socket that they have accepted on our behalf.
> * Another case is in tests when we might want to open a port using a random 
> port number and then atomically hand that to test code.
