set a private pointer added to the internal libcurl hash table for the
particular socket passed in to this function.

  using the same socket. I've cleaned up and simplified code now to adjust to
  this.

+ TODO: We need to alter how we use c-ares for getting info about its sockets,
+ as c-ares now provides a callback approach very similar to how libcurl is
+ about to work.
+
+ I'm adding a function called curl_multi_assign() that will set a private
+ pointer added to the internal libcurl hash table for the particular socket
+ passed in to this function:
+
+ CURLMcode curl_multi_assign(CURLM *multi_handle,
+                             curl_socket_t sockfd,
+                             void *sockp);
+
+ 'sockp' being a custom pointer set by the application to be associated with
+ this socket. The socket has to be already existing and in-use by libcurl,
+ like having already called the callback telling about its existance.
+
+ The set hashp pointer will then be passed on to the callback in upcoming
+ calls when this same socket is used (in the brand new 'socketp' argument).
