osutil: implement recvmsg() of SCM_RIGHTS for chg command server

It will be used to attach client's stdio files to a background chg command
server.

The socket module of Python 2.x doesn't provide recvmsg(). This could be
implemented by using ctypes, but it would be less portable than the C version
because the handling of socket ancillary data heavily depends on preprocessor.
Also, some length fields are wrongly typed in the Linux kernel.
