Rework the 3 patches sent on "Tue, 8 Apr 2014 14:06:24 +0200",
including some bugfixes and actual testing of the code.
It seems to work correctly now (which it didn't before).
I also included the patch from "Mon, 7 Apr 2014 20:26:51 +0200"
> [PATCH 1/1] lib/socket: randomize the generated local port
so, that one is obsolete as well.
The "randomization" now also shuffles the order of how to access the
lower 32 bits. In testing, this actually makes a lot of a difference.

lib/socket: use proper typed constant UINT32_MAX for uint32_t typed
port
lib/socket: don't fail if no more local ports can be assigned in
nl_socket_alloc
lib/socket: retry generate local port in nl_connect on ADDRINUSE
lib/socket: randomize the generated local port
