This patch stops a socket driver from using copyfd(2) to copy in a
file descriptor that is a reference to a socket owned by that socket
driver, returning EDEADLK instead. In effect, this will stop deadlock
and resource exhaustion issues with UDS once it has been converted to
a socket driver. See the comment in the patch for details.

This change effectively adds the VFS side of support for the SO_LINGER
socket option, by allowing file descriptor close operations to be
suspended (and later resumed) by socket drivers. Currently, support
is limited to the close(2) system call--in all other cases where file
descriptors are closed (dup2, close-on-exec, process exit..), the
close operation still completes instantly. As a general policy, the
close(2) return value will always indicate that the file descriptor
has been closed: either 0, or -1 with errno set to EINPROGRESS. The
latter error may be thrown only when a suspended close is interrupted
by a signal.
As necessary for UDS, this change also introduces a closenb(2) system
call extension, allowing the caller to bypass blocking SO_LINGER close
behavior. This extension allows UDS to avoid blocking on closing the
last reference to an in-flight file descriptor, in an atomic fashion.
The extension is currently part of libsys, but there is no reason why
userland would not be allowed to make this call, so it is deliberately
not protected from use by userland.

This patch adds the implementation of the BSD socket system calls
which have been introduced in an earlier patch. At the same time, it
adds support for communication with socket drivers, using a new
"socket device" (SDEV_) protocol. These two parts, implemented in
socket.c and sdev.c respectively, form the upper and lower halves of
the new BSD socket support in VFS. New mapping functionality for
socket domains and drivers is added as well, implemented in smap.c.
The rest of the changes mainly facilitate the separation of character
and socket driver calls, and do not make any fundamental alterations.
For example, while this patch changes VFS's select.c rather heavily,
the new select logic for socket drivers is the exact same as for
character drivers; the changes mainly separate the driver type
specific parts from the generic select logic further than before.

The remapping from /dev/tty to the real controlling terminal in the
device code was confusing the select code. The latter is now aware
of this case and should handle it properly, at the cost of one extra
field in the filp structure.
There is a nasty, hopefully sufficiently rare case of /dev/tty being
kept open while controlling terminals are changing, that we are still
not handling. Doing so would require more than just a few changes,
but the code should at least detect and cleanly fail on this case.
Test77 now has a basic test set for selecting on /dev/tty.
