Description

The current Socket.pm module only allows for creating a TCP socket client. Some implementations that use Thrift (notably Jaeger Agent), use the UDP protocol.

A quick solution to enabling Thrift over UDP is to allow the client to specify the protocol when creating the socket instance, otherwise have it default to using TCP.
