Bind
The Bind message is send to the TCP manager actor, which is obtained via TcpExt#manager in order to bind to a listening socket. The manager replies either with a CommandFailed or the actor handling the listen socket replies with a Bound message. If the local port is set to 0 in the Bind message, then the Bound message should be inspected to find the actual port which was bound to.
