/**
* Connects to the given node and service via TCP/UDP.
*
* @note There's 2 types of error reporting on this function that you can use.
* @note Default error codes:
* 0 - No error
* 1 - Error while creating socket
* 2 - Couldn't resolve hostname
* 3 - Couldn't connect
* @note New, more expressive libc error codes:
* https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_node/Error-Codes.html
* https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/include/uapi/asm-generic/errno.h
* https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms740668.aspx
*
* @note The currently available bit flags are:
* - SOCK_NON_BLOCKING : if set, the socket will be on nonblocking mode
* - SOCK_LIBC_ERRORS : if set, the new libc errors will be seen on _error
*
* @note If no flags are set, the behaviour of the function will not be modified.
*
* @note Multiple flags may be set at the same time using the | operator.
* For example, SOCK_NON_BLOCKING|SOCK_LIBC_ERRORS will create a nonblocking socket with libc error codes.
*
* @note If you're creating a new nonblocking socket, _hostname should be numeric to avoid calling the
* name resolution server and potentially blocking the call.
*
* @note If the socket is a nonblocking one, the returned socket descriptor may be still connecting and
* further checks should be done with socket_is_writable() before trying to send data.
*
* @param _hostname Node to connect to
* @param _port Service to connect to
* @param _protocol Connect via SOCKET_TCP or SOCKET_UDP
* @param _error Set an error code here if anything goes wrong
* @param _flags Optional bit flags that change the behaviour of the function
*
* @return A socket descriptor (a positive integer) on success
* -1 on failure
