Support for the unix socket has existed both in BSD and Linux for the
longest time, but not on Windows. Since Windows 10 build 17063 [1],
the native support for the unix socket has came to Windows. Starting
this build, two Win32 processes can use the AF_UNIX address family
over Winsock API to communicate with each other.
Introduce a new build time config option CONFIG_AF_UNIX when the build
host has such a capability, and a run-time check afunix_available() for
Windows host in the QEMU sockets util codes.

Changes in v2:
- move #include <afunix.h> to os-win32.h
- define WIN_BUILD_AF_UNIX only when CONFIG_WIN32
- drop #include <afunix.h> as it is now already included in osdep.h
- new patch: tests/unit: Update test-io-channel-socket.c for Windows
Bin Meng (6):
util/qemu-sockets: Replace the call to close a socket with
closesocket()
