Following the recent discussion on c.l.p about socket options,
I found that the socket module does not define all constants
defined in the (Linux) socket header file.

Below is a patch that adds a few more (note that the SOL_*
constants should be used for the setsockopt() level, not the
IPPROTO_* constants).
