Eric Dumazet 9f6f9af769 af_unix: MSG_TRUNC support for dgram sockets
Piergiorgio Beruto expressed the need to fetch size of first datagram in
queue for AF_UNIX sockets and suggested a patch against SIOCINQ ioctl.

I suggested instead to implement MSG_TRUNC support as a recv() input
flag, as already done for RAW, UDP & NETLINK sockets.

len = recv(fd, &byte, 1, MSG_PEEK | MSG_TRUNC);

MSG_TRUNC asks recv() to return the real length of the packet, even when
is was longer than the passed buffer.

There is risk that a userland application used MSG_TRUNC by accident
(since it had no effect on af_unix sockets) and this might break after
this patch.
