http: client keep-alive for UNIX domain sockets

Rodrigo Muino Tomonari requested to merge github/fork/bengl/bengl/unixkeepalive into master

Makes Connection: keep-alive behave correctly when making client connections to UNIX domain sockets.

Prior to this, connections would never be re-used, but the keep-alive would cause the connections to stick around until they time out. This would lead to an eventual EMFILE error due to all the connections staying open. This was due to http.Agent not properly supporting UNIX domain sockets.
