Patch vs HEAD

Hi,

when creating TCP listen sockets, DBus doesn't currently set SO_REUSEADDR on the listen socket. This is somewhat annoying when restarting dbus-daemon because one has to wait for the TIME_WAIT sockets from former clients to disappear before starting the new dbus-daemon (or it will fail out with EADDRINUSE).

Patch is trivial, see attachment.

Apparently, this is a duplicate of #28838, but the patch has not yet found its way to master.
