Description
Currently it's only possible to open TCP (or TLS) connections on IPv4. This should include other socket types that Autobahn supports.
We can't just export Twisted endpoints as "the" API as that can't easily be supported for the asyncio ApplicationRunner...

Research direction
Start by tracing ApplicationRunner's existing TCP and TLS connection setup, then compare how socket types are supported by Autobahn's Twisted and asyncio integrations. Done means ApplicationRunner supports Unix-domain sockets and other socket types Autobahn supports without making Twisted endpoints the shared API.
