sin-ack 2e1bbcb0fa LibCore+LibIPC+Everywhere: Return Stream::LocalSocket from LocalServer
This change unfortunately cannot be atomically made without a single
commit changing everything.

Most of the important changes are in LibIPC/Connection.cpp,
LibIPC/ServerConnection.cpp and LibCore/LocalServer.cpp.

The notable changes are:
- IPCCompiler now generates the decode and decode_message functions such
  that they take a Core::Stream::LocalSocket instead of the socket fd.
- IPC::Decoder now uses the receive_fd method of LocalSocket instead of
  doing system calls directly on the fd.
- IPC::ConnectionBase and related classes now use the Stream API
  functions.
- IPC::ServerConnection no longer constructs the socket itself; instead,
  a convenience macro, IPC_CLIENT_CONNECTION, is used in place of
  C_OBJECT and will generate a static try_create factory function for
  the ServerConnection subclass. The subclass is now responsible for
  passing the socket constructed in this function to its
  ServerConnection base; the socket is passed as the first argument to
  the constructor (as a NonnullOwnPtr<Core::Stream::LocalServer>) before
  any other arguments.
- The functionality regarding taking over sockets from SystemServer has
  been moved to LibIPC/SystemServerTakeover.cpp. The Core::LocalSocket
  implementation of this functionality hasn't been deleted due to my
  intention of removing this class in the near future and to reduce
  noise on this (already quite noisy) PR.

About

SerenityOS is a love letter to '90s user interfaces with a custom Unix-like core. It flatters with sincerity by stealing beautiful ideas from various other systems.

Roughly speaking, the goal is a marriage between the aesthetic of late-1990s productivity software and the power-user accessibility of late-2000s *nix. This is a system by us, for us, based on the things we like.

You can watch videos of the system being developed on YouTube:
