[PATCH] D55576: [libcxx] [test] [support] Use socket()+bind() to create unix sockets portably

Replace the mknod() call with socket() + bind() for creating unix
sockets.  The mknod() method is not portable and does not work
on NetBSD while binding the socket should work on all systems supporting
unix sockets.

// NB: I think this should solve the issues w/ FreeBSD/Darwin too but I don't have those systems to test
