Ncat no longer showing "Connected to" message in verbose mode

[David Fifield <david () bamsoftware com>]

With the -v flag, Ncat used to print out a message to stderr when the
connection succeeds:
        $ ncat -v scanme.nmap.org 80
        Ncat: Version 7.12SVN ( https://nmap.org/ncat )
        Ncat: Connected to 45.33.32.156:80.

Since r36004, it doesn't print the "Connected to" message anymore. It
confused me a few times when I was using Ncat to debug a connectivity
issue.

The log message for r36004 is
        Adds zero-byte option(-z) for Ncat. Fixes #22 and #225

I would guess this part of the patch is causing the problem:

             if ((cs.stdin_nsi = nsock_iod_new2(nsp, 0, NULL)) == NULL)
