[PATCH 2/3] os: Add a mechanism to prevent creating any listen sockets

[Kristian Høgsberg]

A socket-activated server will receive its listening sockets from the
parent process and should not create its own sockets.  This patch
introduces a NoListen flag that can be set by a DDX to prevent
the server from creating the sockets.
