'''Summary:''' Support C/R of corked UDP socket
There's UDP_CORK option for sockets. As man page says:
<pre>
If this option is enabled, then all data output on this socket
is accumulated into a single datagram that is transmitted when
the option is disabled. This option should not be used in
code intended to be portable.
</pre>
Currently criu refuses to dump this case, so it's effectively a bug. Supporting
this will need extending the kernel API to allow criu read back the write queue
of the socket (see [[TCP connection|how it's done]] for TCP sockets, for example). Then
the queue is written into the image and is restored into the socket (with the CORK
bit set too).
