       Creates a new mongoc_socket_t structure. This calls socket() underneath to create a network socket.

       • domain: An int containing the address family such as AF_INET.

       • type: An int containing the socket type such as SOCK_STREAM.

       • protocol: A protocol subset, typically 0.

       A  new  socket  if  successful,  otherwise  NULL  and  errno  is  set.  The  result  should be freed with
       mongoc_socket_destroy() when no longer in use.
