I doubt this function is hard to implement in other CLs if we add it as a new 
USOCKET API function ...

It's sometimes useful, but in most cases, I think user code is safe to listen 
to 0.0.0.0 instead of the exact address on local interface. As a portable 
networking package, you can't expect everything is perfect:)
