Interesting idea. Potentially opens up the way to redirect without
fallback to backlog thread in the future. If we know the target, then we
can propagate backpressure.

If we go this route, we will need tests. selftests/test_sockmap would
need to be extended, and we will also need some unit tests in test_progs
for corner cases. Corner cases to cover that come to mind: redirect to
self, redirect target socket closed.

I'm out next week, so won't be able to give it a proper review.
