Networking Enhancements

Support for selected BSD-style socket options in the java.net base classes. With JDK 1.1, Socket and ServerSocket are non-final, extendable classes. New subclasses of SocketException have been added for finer granularity in reporting and handling network errors. The class MulticastSocket moves from sun.net to java.net. Also includes general performance improvements and bug fixes.
