socket_manager: add feature to take over another server

Another process can take over UDP/TCP sockets without downtime. server = ServerEngine::SocketManager::Server.take_over_another_server(path) This starts a new server that has all UDP/TCP sockets of the existing server. It receives the sockets from the existing server and stops it after starts a new server. This may not be the primary use case assumed by ServerEngine, but we need this feature to replace both the server and the workers with a new process without downtime. Currently, ServerEngine does not provide this feature for network servers. At the moment, I assume that the application side uses this feature ad hoc, but, in the future, this could be used to support live reload for entire network servers. ref: fluent/fluentd#4622 Signed-off-by: Daijiro Fukuda <[email protected]>

+- `socket_manager_server = SocketManager::Server.take_over_another_server(path)`
+  - It starts a new manager server that has all UDP/TCP sockets of the existing manager.
+  - It receives the sockets and stops the existing manager after starts a new manager.
+  - It means that another process can take over UDP/TCP sockets without downtime.
