david e03dcf3d8a Do a connect on rpc-grind UDP sockets to invoke socket_lock. ...

This connect should be side effect–free except for calling socket_lock,
which prevents the creation of an excessive number of sockets. Not using
the lock was causing "Too many open files" errors.

We should have a cleaner general solution for this, and not require
scripts to "connect" their unconnected UDP sockets. I seem to remember
that there was a good reason for not enforcing the lock on socket
creation, but only on connect, as we do.
