UDPLITE support #361

Description

@dtaht

Somewhat related to #350 is UDPLITE. It's supported on many an OS (linux and bsd for sure), and by default behaves just like UDP, with the exception that you can shorten the checksum, which is increasingly not terribly useful for its intended purpose, but it's there...

I'm getting kind of concerned about UDP getting so heavily used by QUIC, limited port space from CGNATs, etc, and it's always seemed to me that at least trying to make udplite work was rather straightforward, and only a couple lines of code.
