       The  explain_socket_or_die function is used to call the socket(2) system call.  On failure an explanation
       will be printed to stderr, obtained from explain_socket(3), and then the process  terminates  by  calling
       exit(EXIT_FAILURE).

       This function is intended to be used in a fashion similar to the following example:
              explain_socket_or_die(domain, type, protocol);

       domain  The domain, exactly as to be passed to the socket(2) system call.

       type    The type, exactly as to be passed to the socket(2) system call.

       protocol
               The protocol, exactly as to be passed to the socket(2) system call.

       Returns:
               This function only returns on success.  On failure, prints an explanation and exits.
