- Move closing of servlink control fd to close_connection() instead of doing it in exit_local_server(), and make sure we first close the data fd and then the control fd. - Have servlink process ready fds in order net, data, ctrl instead of ctrl, data, net. This seems to fix the problem that squit reasons do not show up on the other side of a ziplink (by making it send any final SQUIT and/or ERROR before noticing the closed control fd). |

--------------
After negotiating an incoming/outgoing server connection, the ircd will
fork, then execve servlink, with fd 0 as one end of a control pipe and
fd 1 as one end of a data pipe. fd 2 will be the socket connected to
the remote server.
The data pipe is used by the ircd to send/receive normal, decrypted,
uncompressed IRC commands to/from the remote server. The socket is used to
send the (processed) data to the remote server, and receive the data from
the remote server.
The control pipe is used to activate encryption/compression and to set the
encryption key/algorithm to be used.
Format of control messages:
<u8 command><optional data>
data format:
<u16 len><data>
Commands:
001 - SET_ZIP_OUT_LEVEL
data: yes
description:
