sock: add SOCK_ZEROCOPY sockopt
The send call ignores unknown flags. Legacy applications may already unwittingly pass MSG_ZEROCOPY. Continue to ignore this flag unless a socket opts in to zerocopy. Introduce socket option SO_ZEROCOPY to enable MSG_ZEROCOPY processing. Processes can also query this socket option to detect kernel support for the feature. Older kernels will return ENOPROTOOPT.
