/* Opens the targets specified in 'targets' for sending UDP packets.  This is
 * useful for e.g. sending NetFlow or sFlow packets.  Returns 0 if successful,
 * otherwise a positive errno value if opening at least one collector failed.
 *
 * Each target in 'targets' should be a string in the format "<host>[:<port>]".
 * <port> may be omitted if 'default_port' is nonzero, in which case it
 * defaults to 'default_port'.
 *
 * '*collectorsp' is set to a null pointer if no targets were successfully
 * added, otherwise to a new collectors object if at least one was successfully
 * added.  Thus, even on a failure return, it is possible that '*collectorsp'
 * is nonnull, and even on a successful return, it is possible that
 * '*collectorsp' is null, if 'target's is an empty svec. */
