[PATCH] statd: statd_get_socket() should return open fds

OpenGroup says getservbyport(3) is supposed to return NULL when
no entry exists for the specified port. But musl's getservbyport(3)
never returns NULL (likely a bug).

Thus statd_get_socket() tries bindresvport(3) 100 times, then gives
up and returns the last socket it created. This should work fine,
but there's a bug in the retry loop:

Rich Felker <dalias@xxxxxxxx> says:
> The logic bug is the count-down loop that closes all the temp

(emphasis mine). The closed socket fd is then passed to select(2).

The fix is to perform the loop termination test before adding sockfd
to the set of fds to be closed. As additional clean ups, remove the
use of the variable-length stack array, and switch to variable names
that better document the purpose of this logic.
