enhancement

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe

Some of us prefer to avoid the overhead of TCP/IP when connecting services on the same machine.

Describe the solution you'd like

Two more flags: unixsocket and unixsocketperm

GarnetServer --unixsocket /tmp/redis.sock --unixsocketperm 770

Describe alternatives you've considered

Use one of the many alternatives that support unix sockets 😄

Additional context

The flags above are identical to Redis FYI.

Hi team, are you still considering this enhancement? I'd like to confirm it before I do any dev works. I'm seeing the current implementation assumes everywhere that there's only one TCP server listening for the connections so I'm not sure if it's a big change to support Unix socket.
