called and the "serving" event is dispatched.

dispatched with a child object implementing @Efl.Net.Socket

@Efl.Io.Writer and @Efl.Io.Closer interfaces, so can be used
with utilities such as @Efl.Io.Copier.

This method will account the new client in

After this call, the client ownership will be
managed. If no event handler references the object, it
will be deleted.
Most implementions will do the sequence:
- emit "client,add"
- check if client was referenced
- if we're not the parent anymore, ignore (do not
change @.clients_count) and return $true.
- if not referenced, delete it and return $false.
- if it's closed, delete it and return $false.
- if referenced, increment @.clients_count and monitor
for client "closed" event and return $true.
- on client "closed", decrease @.clients_count and
unset its parent (if we're still the parent).
Do not monitor "closed" before emitting
"client,add". Doing so may lead to double free if
callbacks close the client by themselves!
