test-dgram-multicast-multi-process was flaky on FreeBSD and Raspeberry
Pi. This refactoring fixes the issue by eliminating a race condition.

Fixes: #2474

This change moves process.send({ listening: true }); after the binding of events for listenSocket. Because we're dealing with separate processes, the previous arrangement resulted in a race condition.

With this change, 9999 consecutive successful runs on FreeBSD:

Without this change, not so much:

/cc @defunctzombie (to confirm that the test still does what it was written to do)

Since you're changing all of these lines, it would be awesome to split them into individual const declaration statements.

I think we want to skip if we're in a freebsd jail here.

Bump. Anyone feel good enough about this for an LGTM?

I won't be able to take a look until next week but am sure others can
confirm that correct behavior is sill tested.

You can safely drop this, I think.

All nits un-nitted.

Not a nit, more a stream-of-consciousness remark, but I would have thrown an exception here.

Not really a response but getting all stream-of-consciousness over here too: FWIW, I agree and probably would have chosen to throw an exception too and would have also not included console.error() messages here and elsewhere in the test. But those are just my personal preferences and I only wanted to go so far in rewriting existing code. All this stuff was in the existing test. It only shows up as a change because the indentation changed and/or I moved it to a different location.
