#996: Socket.pmc should implement readline
--------------------+-------------------------------------------------------
 Reporter:  coke    |       Owner:       
     Type:  RFC     |      Status:  new  
 Priority:  normal  |   Milestone:       
Component:  none    |     Version:  trunk
 Severity:  medium  |    Keywords:       
     Lang:          |       Patch:       
 Platform:          |  
--------------------+-------------------------------------------------------
 The following code

 {{{
 .sub main
   $P1 = new 'Socket'
   # connect to a port.
   $S1 = readline $P1
 .end
 }}}

 dies with
 {{{
 Method 'readline' not found
 current instr.: 'main' pc -1 ((unknown file):-1)
 called from Sub 'main' pc 3 (foo.pir:4)
 }}}

 I imagine I'm not the only HLL author who needs line-based reads on
 arbitrary handles. Is this something parrot should provide or do I need to
 roll my own?

 (also, if readline is just a shortcut to call the readline method, let's
 kill the opcode.)
