As reported by @andypost on GitHub, if you try to build Unit on a system
that uses musl libc (such as Alpine Linux) with clang then you get the
following
clang -c -pipe -fPIC -fvisibility=hidden -O -W -Wall -Wextra -Wno-unused-parameter -Wwrite-strings -fstrict-aliasing -Wstrict-overflow=5 -Wmissing-prototypes -Werror -g -I src -I build/include \

-o build/src/nxt_socketpair.o \
-MMD -MF build/src/nxt_socketpair.dep -MT build/src/nxt_socketpair.o \
src/nxt_socketpair.c

GCC works fine, it seems to have some smarts so that it doesn't give
warnings on system header files.
This seems to be a long standing issue with musl libc (bad casting in
the CMSG_NXTHDR macro) and the workaround employed by several projects
is to disable the -Wsign-compare clang warning for the code in question.
So, that's what we do. We wrap the CMSG_NXTHDR macro in a function, so
we can use the pre-processor in it to selectively disable the warning.
