HTTP / TCP Test Harness for JSON RPC

[praetoriansentry]

Description

Creating a basic test harness based on the idea from Release It / Michae Nygard. The goal is to use this while testing our JSON proxies and various blockchain components. Eventually we may want to drop down to an even lower level to handle stuff like sending RST packets or fiddling with the controls of TCP.
