We should allow for third party people to supply there own parcel port implementation at runtime. The easiest would be to load parcel ports from separate shared libraries and accessing them using a virtual function interface.

A recent discussion on IRC with @biddisco added another facet to this: licensing. Having a plugin system for the parcel ports allows to integrate parcel ports which have licenses incompatible with HPX.
