Implement a basic network stack #137

@Liblor, using your code worked for me. Something wasn't right with the old mapping code I used. Thanks!

Two things are left to do here.

[x] Expose UDP functionality as a service. For this, we need to keep track of which client (dispatcher) registers for which port. If a UDP datagram is received on that port, we redirect the data over RPC.
[ ] Measure the performance of the implementation. Judging by the ping response time, the latency is quite high.

Exposing as a service depends partially on #142.

I've created an echoserver process, that registers for a UDP port, and echos back the messages it receives. It fully integrates the current nameserver architecture, and tests with netcat show it's working properly.
