Since this is also needed for other applets like telnetd,
introduce generic driver for such things.
It even supports inetd-wait ('linger') mode, when inetd
hands out listen socket to child and waits to it to die,
instead of handing out accepted socket and continuing
listening itself (nowait mode).
Code growth ~200 bytes.
NB: our inetd doesn't support wait mode yet (or mabe it is buggy).

libbb is BusyBox's utility library. All of this stuff used to be stuffed into
a single file named utility.c. When I split utility.c to create libbb, some of
the very oldest stuff ended up without their original copyright and licensing
information (which is now lost in the mists of time). If you see something
that you wrote that is mis-attributed, do let me know so we can fix that up.
