This can happen when large burst of messages come all of a sudden, which happen very easily when routing protocols are involved (e.g. BGP). The current implementation incorrectly assumes that any failure to read from the socket is akin to the socket closed. This is not the case.
This adds handling for this specific error, which translates to a wrapper struct in the unsolicited messages stream: either a message, or an overrun. This lets applications handle best for their usecase such event: either resync because messages are lost, or do nothing if the listening is informational only (e.g. logging).
This PR fixes the issue raised in #139
