Socket::available Causes Connection Reset by Peer on Windows UDP Sockets

[andrewauclair]

Should we be using Poco::Net::UDPServer and Poco::Net::UDPClient instead of a Poco::Net::DatagramSocket directly to avoid issues like this?

Maybe not. Looks like that only supports connecting locally.

I ended up closing and reopening the socket if there was an error after calling available(). It still doesn't seem that great to me that available() could cause an error and return -1.

Some additional testing resulted in receiveBytes throwing a std::bad_array_new_length because available returned -1.
