Summary: fix for 764437 AF_UNIX socket special linux socket names

Initial Comment:
The patch addresses two things:
1. the socket name (obtained using getsockname() or
getpeername() ) will now be correct in case of the
special linux socket names (starting with 0 byte)
2. the socket module now has a new constant:
UNIX_PATH_MAX , that can be used to build
correctly-sized path names.

As you noted on IRC: this needs a new regression test.
