----------------------------------

[~StephanEwen] 
Though flink already have a SocketTextStreamFunction, netty's better performance and custom delimiter can be more helpful and flexible. SocketTextStreamFunction is read remote source like pull mode, this implements is receiver mode, that is accept the push data.
I've finish it except unit test.
What do you think of this issue?
