Redis Implementation of Socket.IO Store

STATUS: Deprecated. No longer under development.

RedisStore was added to Socket.io core up through v1.0. Please use that instead.

I'm leaving this up for historical reference and because I think there are some fundamentally better approaches in the way this version of a Redis-based Socket.io Store was designed to handle sessions. However, to make this compatible with Socket.io core would take another major internal architectural re-write of core.
