Duplicate a Socket Wrapper Sharing the Connection

See more Socket/SSL/TLS Examples

Demonstrates Socket.DupSocket, which populates a destination Socket with another wrapper that shares this object's underlying connection.

Background. The shared connection is reference-counted, and all wrappers operate on the same live connection. The destination first releases any connection it previously held.
