Description
**User Story**
https://github.com/steemit/steem/pull/3286, https://github.com/steemit/steem/pull/3205
>This PR adds to steemd the ability to offer a unix-socket webserver (in addition to http and ws).
>For some node operators, they will use nginx or jussi on their front ends, with a steemd node running on the same box. And since TCP over localhost is dumb, I ported in the ability to use unix-sockets.
