Description

Hi,

Currently, it's assumed that services are always reachable by TCP. Since that works for almost all use cases, I would like to reach some via UDP or QUIC. I think, the service definition would be more complete with a `Protocol` field. It could be also used to form the DNS query `_service._protocol.service.consul`.

Does this make sense?

Best regards
