Avoiding DNS Lookups for localhost on socket.send

[dm03514]

Greetings! I recently noticed that nodes udp library does a dns lookup on every socket.send call. It looks like newer versions of node allow callers to specify a custom lookup function on socket creation dgram.createSocket. But older versions don't.

Would it be possible to introduce a change to allow callers to specify a createSocket function as part of the statsd client arguments. This approach was taken in order to enable backwards compatibility with wayyy older versions of node (ie v0.10).

I appreciate your time!
