selftests/xattr: test xattrs on various socket families
Test user.* xattr operations on sockets from different address families:
AF_INET, AF_INET6, AF_NETLINK, and AF_PACKET. All socket types use
sockfs for their inodes, so user.* xattrs should work regardless of
address family.
Each fixture creates a socket (no bind needed) and verifies the full
fsetxattr/fgetxattr/flistxattr/fremovexattr cycle. AF_INET6 skips if
not supported; AF_PACKET skips if CAP_NET_RAW is unavailable.
Also tests abstract namespace AF_UNIX sockets, which live in sockfs
(not on a filesystem) and should support user.* xattrs.
