UDP segmentation offload is an optimisation attempt by sending multiple
large enough datagrams over UDP which reduces syscalls as by default,
they have to be broke down in small UDP packets, it is better if the
hardware supports it, other handed down to the software implementation.

- socket_addrinfo_lookup throws when hints is an indexed array.
- socket_get_option hardcoding size outputs to user when data

* ext/socket: Reduce scope of variables
* ext/socket: Throw TypeErrors when not passing a string for options requiring one
* ext/sockets: Throw ValueError when string has null bytes for options not passing string length
* ext/sockets: Throw ValueError when string is too long
And replace calls to strlcpy to memcpy
Allows to select an alternate TCP stack. For example with RACK,
a fast loss detection relying on timestamp per packet.
While it works system-wide, it can also apply in an individual socket level too.

Is to create socket for Internet Control Message Protocol context.
Due to their nature, they are meant to be used via
raw sockets rather than TCP/UDP.

when passing PHP_INT_MAX for the $length param we get this (with ubsan)
`ext/sockets/sockets.c:1409:36: runtime error: signed integer overflow: 9223372036854775807 + 1 cannot be represented in type 'long int'`

targetted for socket_create_pair/socket_create, they re not considered
as socket type but to be ORed with these (to avoid socketpair2/socket2
likely), set O_CLOEXEC/O_NONBLOCK respectively on the file descriptors.

bug#75721 patch from jonathan@tangential.ca.
MCAST_JOIN_GROUP/MCAST_LEAVE_GROUP socket option for the RFC 3678
support does not work on freebsd, using IP_ADD_MEMBERSHIP instead.
These three tests try to create an ipv6 socket with socket_create() to
determine if they should be skipped. On certain systems lacking ipv6
support, however, the call to socket_create() itself raises a warning:
BORK Warning: socket_create(): Unable to create socket [97]: Address
family not supported by protocol in ...
The output is "borked" because the return value (false) is expected
but the text of the warning is not. This commit uses the error control
operator (@) to hide the warning. Afterwards the tests are skipped
normally on such a system.
