doc: Add program to document and test assumptions about SO_REUSEADDR

For the approach we intend to use for handling UDP flows, we have some
pretty specific requirements about how SO_REUSEADDR works with UDP sockets.
Specifically SO_REUSEADDR allows multiple sockets with overlapping bind()s,
and therefore there can be multiple sockets which are eligible to receive
the same datagram.  Which one will actually receive it is important to us.

Add a test program which verifies things work the way we expect, which
documents what those expectations are in the process.

Platform Requirements
=====================
TODO: document the various Linux specific features we currently require
Test Programs
-------------
In some places we rely on quite specific behaviour of sockets.
Although Linux, at least, seems to behave as required, It's not always
clear from the available documentation if this is required by POSIX or
some other specification.
To specifically document those expectations this directory has some
test programs which explicitly check for the behaviour we need.
When/if we attempt a port to a new platform, running these to check
behaviour would be a good place to start.

* Verify which SO_REUSEADDR UDP sockets get priority to receive
* =============================================================
*
* SO_REUSEADDR allows multiple sockets to bind to overlapping addresses, so
* there can be multiple sockets eligible to receive the same packet. The exact
* semantics of which socket will receive in this circumstance isn't very well
* documented.
*
* This program verifies that things behave the way we expect. Specifically we
* expect:
*
* - If both a connected and an unconnected socket could receive a datagram, the
* connected one will receive it in preference to the unconnected one.
*
* - If an unconnected socket bound to a specific address and an unconnected
* socket bound to the "any" address (0.0.0.0 or ::) could receive a datagram,
* then the one with a specific address will receive it in preference to the
* other.
*
* These should be true regardless of the order the sockets are created in, or
* the order they're polled in.
