sockets: allow port to be NULL when listening on IP address
If the port in the SocketAddress struct is NULL, it can allow the kernel to automatically select a free port. This is useful in particular in unit tests to avoid a race trying to find a free port to run a test case on. Signed-off-by: Daniel P. Berrange <berrange@redhat.com>
