 * This is a small example of how to write a TCP server using
 * Contiki's protosockets. It is a simple server that accepts one line
 * of text from the TCP connection, and echoes back the first 10 bytes
 * of the string, and then closes the connection.
 *
 * The server only handles one connection at a time.
