[issue24809] Add getprotobynumber to socket module

[Brian Haley]

Any chance this will get accepted?  I actually have a use case in Openstack where we might get a protocol number and want to save the name along with it.  Right now we're looking at using libc getprotoent() directly which isn't that pretty.  Thanks!
