pflocal: fix port leak when receiving port rights
The socket_send and socket_recv routines can be used to transmit port rights along data. Unfortunately, pflocal retains a copy of these rights in the socket_recv RPC. These lingering references would in turn lead to other leaks in servers waiting for a no-sender notification to clean their resources. Since these copied rights aren't used at all by the server, it is safe to simply move them to the recipient instead. * pflocal/socket.c (S_socket_recv): Transmit port rights using MACH_MSG_TYPE_MOVE_SEND transfer type instead of MACH_MSG_TYPE_COPY_SEND.
