`new_connect_cb` provided as a part of `net::tcp::listen`.
It can be safely sent to another task but it _must_ be
used (via `net::tcp::accept`) before the `new_connect_cb` call it was
provided to returns.

This implies that a port/chan pair must be used to make sure that the
`new_connect_cb` call blocks until an attempt to create a
`net::tcp::tcp_socket` is completed.

# Example

Here, the `new_conn` is used in conjunction with `accept` from within
a task spawned by the `new_connect_cb` passed into `listen`

~~~~~~~~~~~
net::tcp::listen(remote_ip, remote_port, backlog) {|new_conn, kill_ch|
    let cont_po = comm::port::<option<tcp_err_data>>();
    let cont_ch = comm::chan(cont_po);
    task::spawn {||
        let accept_result = net::tcp::accept(new_conn);
        if accept_result.is_failure() {
            comm::send(cont_ch, result::get_err(accept_result));
            // fail?
        }
        else {
            let sock = result::get(accept_result);
            comm::send(cont_ch, true);
            // do work here
        }
    };
    alt comm::recv(cont_po) {
      // shut down listen()
      some(err_data) { comm::send(kill_chan, some(err_data)) }
      // wait for next connection
      none {}
    }
};
~~~~~~~~~~~

# Arguments

* `new_conn` - an opaque value used to create a new `tcp_socket`

# Returns

* Success
  * On success, this function will return a `net::tcp::tcp_socket` as the
  `ok` variant of a `result`. The `net::tcp::tcp_socket` is anchored within
  the task that `accept` was called within for its lifetime.
* Failure
  * On failure, this function will return a `net::tcp::tcp_err_data` record
  as the `err` variant of a `result`.

Bind to a given IP/port and listen for new connections

# Arguments

* `host_ip` - a `net::ip::ip_addr` representing a unique IP
(versions 4 or 6)
* `port` - a uint representing the port to listen on
* `backlog` - a uint representing the number of incoming connections
to cache in memory
* `on_establish_cb` - a callback that is evaluated if/when the listener
is successfully established. it takes no parameters
* `new_connect_cb` - a callback to be evaluated, on the libuv thread,
whenever a client attempts to conect on the provided ip/port. the
callback's arguments are:
    * `new_conn` - an opaque type that can be passed to
    `net::tcp::accept` in order to be converted to a `tcp_socket`.
    * `kill_ch` - channel of type `comm::chan<option<tcp_err_data>>`. this
    channel can be used to send a message to cause `listen` to begin
    closing the underlying libuv data structures.

# returns

a `result` instance containing empty data of type `()` on a
successful/normal shutdown, and a `tcp_err_data` record in the event
of listen exiting because of an error
