[issue1514] missing constants in socket module

[Marc-Andre Lemburg]

Marc-Andre Lemburg added the comment:

If you think we need a better tool, that's a different story, but not an
argument for cluttering up the socket module with a more or less
complete list of C constants.

It's much easier to maintain this outside the socket module in a
separate, platform specific module. This also has the advantage of being
able to see whether a constant is available on a specific platform or
not and also provides access to platform specific constants that would
otherwise not be available.

BTW: Can you point me to a bug report where an h2py generated IN.py has
failed to include important symbols ?
