Throw GAIException() for getaddrinfo errors
Created a new subclass of Exception called GAIException() that will
handle error messages from getaddrinfo() instead of letting Exception()
handle it. GAIException() will make use of gai_strerror() to map the
error code to text. On Windows, gai_strerrorW() must be used if the text
is encoded with UTF-8.

Restrict PixelBuffer dimensions to safe values
We do a lot of calculations based on pixel coordinates and we need

huge framebuffer size and relying on the values overflowing to
access invalid areas of the heap.

dimensions and the pixel contents from the remote side. But the
server might also be affected as a client can adjust the screen
dimensions, as can applications inside the session.
