I don't think make test tests network protocols... That's a bug, but
just saying that make test doesn't do anything useful here...

General comments:
- if we have a non-blocking API, then we should have a library
function to get FDs and/or poll them. Is that available through
url_*() API? I believe it is, because rtsp.c uses it, but just want to
make sure
- this is just for protocols, not demuxers, right? Should we introduce
a flag to indicate which protocols support non-blocking red/write?
This'd be nice for things like webcams and so on also at some point
