socket-util: add wrappers for binding socket to ifindex/ifname

socket_bind_to_ifindex() uses the the SO_BINDTOIFINDEX sockopt of kernel
5.0, with a fallback to SO_BINDTODEVICE on older kernels.

socket_bind_to_ifname() is a trivial wrapper around SO_BINDTODEVICE, the
only benefit of using it instead of SO_BINDTODEVICE directly is that it
determines the size of the interface name properly so that it also works
for unbinding. Moreover, it's an attempt to unify our invocations of the
sockopt with a size of strlen(ifname) rather than strlen(ifname)+1...
