Colin Cross f79b973d92 increase sendmsg internal buffer to support SCM_MAX_FD
The kernel defines a limit on the number of fds that can be passed
through an SCM_RIGHTS ancillary message as SCM_MAX_FD. The value was
255 before kernel 2.6.38 (after that it is 253), and an SCM_RIGHTS
ancillary message with 255 fds requires 1040 bytes, slightly more than
the current 1024 byte internal buffer in sendmsg. 1024 is an arbitrary
size, so increase it to match the the arbitrary size limit in the
kernel. This fixes tests that are verifying they support up to
SCM_MAX_FD fds.

    musl libc

musl, pronounced like the word "mussel", is an MIT-licensed
implementation of the standard C library targetting the Linux syscall
API, suitable for use in a wide range of deployment environments. musl
offers efficient static and dynamic linking support, lightweight code
and low runtime overhead, strong fail-safe guarantees under correct
usage, and correctness in the sense of standards conformance and
safety. musl is built on the principle that these goals are best
achieved through simple code that is easy to understand and maintain.

The 1.1 release series for musl features coverage for all interfaces
defined in ISO C99 and POSIX 2008 base, along with a number of
non-standardized interfaces for compatibility with Linux, BSD, and
glibc functionality.

For basic installation instructions, see the included INSTALL file.
Information on full musl-targeted compiler toolchains, system
bootstrapping, and Linux distributions built on musl can be found on
the project website:
