Alexander Mikhalitsyn a9c49cc2f5 net: scm: introduce and use scm_recv_unix helper
Recently, our friends from bluetooth subsystem reported [1] that after
commit 5e2ff6704a ("scm: add SO_PASSPIDFD and SCM_PIDFD") scm_recv()
helper become unusable in kernel modules (because it uses unexported
pidfd_prepare() API).

We were aware of this issue and workarounded it in a hard way
by commit 97154bcf4d ("af_unix: Kconfig: make CONFIG_UNIX bool").

But recently a new functionality was added in the scope of commit
817efd3cad74 ("Bluetooth: hci_sock: Forward credentials to monitor")
and after that bluetooth can't be compiled as a kernel module.

After some discussion in [1] we decided to split scm_recv() into
two helpers, one won't support SCM_PIDFD (used for unix sockets),
and another one will be completely the same as it was before commit
5e2ff6704a ("scm: add SO_PASSPIDFD and SCM_PIDFD").
