[usocket-devel] fix for connection-stream external-format in CCL

[Vsevolod Dyomkin]

HI,

I've noticed a problem in the CCL backend, when the socket is created not
with the default external-format but with NIL external-format which causes
the fallback to ISO-8859-1 and is rather unfortunate. What's even worse is
that it's very hard to alter the format, while initializing it
from ccl:*default-external-format* makes it possible to control this
parameter.

So here's a small change that solves the problem. It's against v.0.5.5, but
I've looked at the code for 0.6.1 and didn't see any change there. If
someone points me to the sources, I can make a proper patch.
