Asio doesn't contain magic or reinvent the wheel here, `basic_socket`
is a very thin abstraction over a file handle representing a socket.
You need to look to the limits of your operating system and
configuration to know the baseline limit. And of course subtract from
that any additional per-connection resources that your application
uses.
