In many cases the unistd.h includes weren't actually needed.
Don't build tests that need it on windows with MSVC
(multifdsink, multisocketsink, pipelines/tcp).
Preparation for making tests work on Windows with MSVC.
This provides notification that the socket in use was closed by the peer
and gives an opportunity to replace it with a new one which is not
closed, allowing reading from many sockets in order.
I use this in pulsevideo to implement reconnection logic to handle the
pulsevideo service dieing, such that is can be restarted without
disrupting downstream.

`socketsrc` can be considered a source counterpart to `multisocketsink`.
It can be considered a generalization of `tcpclientsrc` and
`tcpserversrc`: it contains all the logic required to communicate over
the socket but none of the logic for creating the sockets/establishing
the connection in the first place, allowing the user to accomplish this
externally in whatever manner they wish making it applicable to other
types of sockets besides TCP.
This commit essentially copies the implementation directly from
tcpserversrc. Later patches will tidy the implementation up and
re-implement `tcpclientsrc` and `tcpserversrc` in terms of `socketsrc`.

There don't seem to be any unit tests for the socket handling elements. As
I am about to attempt some refactorings I've added some basic tests which
exercise some of the happy-paths in tcpclientsrc, tcpserversrc,
tcpserversink and tcpclientsink. They should let me know if I've caused
serious breakage.
They are far from exhaustive but are sufficient for me to have caught a few
memory-leaks in the existing code.
