There are two benefits to this:
1) We can centralize any operating system specific knowledge of
close-vs-EINTR handling. For example, while on Linux we should never
retry, if someone cared enough later about HP-UX, they could come by
and change this one spot.
2) For places that do care about the return value and want to provide
the caller with a GError, this function makes it convenient to do so.
Note that gspawn.c had an incorrect EINTR loop-retry around close().

Use the same code GSocket does, to try SOCK_CLOEXEC first, and then
fall back to FD_CLOEXEC if it fails. (And fix that code to not call
fcntl if SOCK_CLOEXEC worked.)

Add g_socket_get_option() and g_socket_set_option(), wrapping
getsockopt/setsockopt for the case of integer-valued options. Update
code to use these instead of the underlying calls.

sa_family_t is defined in sys/socket.h, this commit makes sure this header is included before netlink.h
This fixes bgo bug #666001
Add GNetworkMonitor and its associated extension point, provide a base
implementation that always claims the network is available, and a
netlink-based implementation built on top of that that actually tracks
the network state.
