This is an implementation of SOCKS5 as defined in RFC 1928
In Wikipedia's words:
SOCKet Secure (SOCKS) is an Internet protocol that routes network packets between a client and server through a proxy server. SOCKS5 additionally provides authentication so only authorized users may access a server. Practically, a SOCKS server will proxy TCP connections to an arbitrary IP address as well as providing a means for UDP packets to be forwarded.
BIND and UDP ASSOCIATE messages are not implemented. However main usage of SOCKS is covered in this implementation.

connect a new socket to the socks server, and connect the stream to a FQDN resolved on the server side.
The socket needs to *not* be already connected.
The destination need to be an ASCII string, otherwise unexpected behavior will ensue. For unicode destination, punycode encoding should be used.
