```
server.socketAddress(connection: : TmuxConnection) -> string
```

How a connection addresses its daemon, as one comparable string.

An absolute socket path names the daemon outright. A name does not: it is
resolved against `TMUX_TMPDIR` (then the default tmpdir) and a per-user
directory, so the tmpdir in force is part of the address. tmux's own default
name is `default`, which is why an unnamed connection is not a third case.
