The socket doesn't expose some constants for getsockopt() and setsockopt():

Get domain and protocol from socket fd
SO_DOMAIN
SO_PROTOCOL

enable/disable passing of credentials
SO_PASSCRED

get security context (SELinux context)
SO_PEERSEC

enable/disable passing of security context
SO_PASSSEC

Issue #27377 adds these constants.

SO_PASSCRED was added to Python 3.3 as part of Issue 6560; it is just missing documentation.

The attached patch adds SO_DOMAIN, SO_PROTOCOL, SO_PEERSEC and SO_PASSSEC. I'd like to get the constants into the stdlib in case Neil's patch won't make it into 3.6.

Patch looks fine to me.
