soreuseport: TCP/IPv4 implementation

Allow multiple listener sockets to bind to the same port.

Motivation for soresuseport would be something like a web server
binding to port 80 running with multiple threads, where each thread
might have it's own listener socket.  This could be done as an
alternative to other models: 1) have one listener thread which
dispatches completed connections to workers. 2) accept on a single
listener socket from multiple threads.  In case #1 the listener thread
can easily become the bottleneck with high connection turn-over rate.
In case #2, the proportion of connections accepted per thread tends
to be uneven under high connection load (assuming simple event loop:
while (1) { accept(); process() }, wakeup does not promote fairness
among the sockets.  We have seen the  disproportion to be as high
as 3:1 ratio between thread accepting most connections and the one
accepting the fewest.  With so_reusport the distribution is
uniform.
