Summary:                    arpa/inet.h - origin of socklen_t is unclear
Description: 
Ref:
https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/basedefs/arpa_inet.h.html

In arpa/inet.h, socklen_t is used as an argument to inet_ntop()
but you have to pull a thread to figure out how it is defined
based on the single include file in the Synopsis. The thread for
.h files is arpa/inet.h -> netinet/in.h -> sys/socket.h. 


Desired Action: 
Clarify the source of socklen_t.
