Fix -F problems (#588)
Attempt to fix some brokenness in -F from #301. In some work related to #125, we introduced a bug in which chunks of a file being read for the -F option were not completely sent, particularly with TCP sockets. We attempt to fix this by detecting cases in which not all data passed to a socket could be actually sent (for example due to full socket buffers) and preserving that data for future send iterations. The ending statistics in the "diskfile" JSON structure were wrong, and did not properly distinguish between sender-side and receiver-side statistics. This has been fixed (at least for the client side). Specifically mention in the manpage that "iperf -F" is not a file transfer tool.
