SocketListener.addInetPort

Helper function for Socket.listenerAddAddress that creates a TCP/IP socket listening on IPv4 and IPv6 (if supported) on the specified port on all interfaces.

source_object will be passed out in the various calls to accept to identify this particular source, which is useful if you're listening on multiple addresses and do different things depending on what address is connected to.

Call Socket.listenerClose to stop listening on port; this will not be done automatically when you drop your final reference to listener, as references may be held internally.
