Problem: ZMQ_PAIR not suitable all transports

Solution: Add documentation to discourage using ZMQ_PAIR for reconnecting transports

While 'ZMQ_PAIR' sockets can be used over transports other than linkzmq:zmq_inproc[7],
their inability to auto-reconnect coupled with the fact new incoming connections will
be terminated while any previous connections (including ones in a closing state)
exist makes them unsuitable in most cases.

it's actually only TCP that is a problem - IPC obviously doesn't have problems with connections dropping
