Rename rawsockets module to nativesockets

Browse source 
This change was done to avoid confusion with TCP/IP raw sockets. Native sockets
module represents handling native system low level socket API in general and is
not just limited anyhow to TCP/IP raw sockets.

A stub lib/deprecated/pure/rawsockets.nim module has been added as
compatibility layer for old code using rawsockets, so this change will not
break existing code.

Changes affecting backwards compatibility
-----------------------------------------
- The ``rawsockets`` module has been renamed to ``nativesockets`` to avoid
confusion with TCP/IP raw sockets, so ``newNativeSocket`` should be used
instead of ``newRawSocket``.
- The ``miliseconds`` property of ``times.TimeInterval`` is now ``milliseconds``.
Code accessing that property is deprecated and code using ``miliseconds``
during object initialization or as a named parameter of ``initInterval()``
