vconn: Factor out common code from TCP and SSL vconns.
The TCP and SSL vconn implementations had a lot of common code to make and accept TCP connections, which this commit factors out into common functions in socket-util.c. Also adds the ability to bind ptcp and pssl vconns to a particular IP address instead of the wildcard address.
