[SR-Users] RFC: updates to some core functions

Hello, it was brought into discussions several times in the past about core functions not accepting variables in the parameters. I think it is time to update them during the 5.3 release development. For few of them, I added in the past some alternative function in the corex module (e.g., force_send_socket() in core and set_send_socket() in corex module). So, I see two options: 1) add a function with similar name in corex module and same behaviour like the one from core 2) remove the function export from the core and export one with the same name from the corex module First one will ensure that configs using the functions right now keep working without any update. The second one will be better in long term from the point of documentation (no duplicated docs), but there might be few cases that would require updates in the config -- iirc, there are some functions that can get special tokens in the parameters (like forward(uri:host, uri:port)), they will get an equivalent with variables, but old config will not be compatible. Obviously the reason for this email is to ask the developers and users what would be the preferred way from own point of view.
