[issue1378] fromfd() and dup() for _socket on WIndows

[roudkerk]

roudkerk added the comment:

Currently on Windows set_error() make use of a large array which maps 
socket error numbers to error messages.

This patch (against socketmodule.c from Python 2.6) removes that 
array and just lets PyErr_SetExcFromWindowsErr() 
generate the message by using the Win32 function FormatMessage().

It is orthogonal from the other patches discussed here.
