This change adds another constructor to the TServerSocket class to support passing a socket that's already bound with the goal to support socket-activation by systemd. If a service is configured to use socket-activation systemd will bind the socket and pass an FD that's already bound as an environment variable when the service is started with the goal to parallelize boot startup and remove ordering dependencies between server ( bind ) and client ( connect).
The new enum type introduced is used mostly to disambiguate constructors.
