Unix domain: Enable logic to clean up the FIFOs underlying stream sockets with those sockets are disconnected. Tehre is still no corresponding clean-up logic in place for Unix domain datagram sockets because the life of the FIFO is not as well known in that case

Title: SOCKETS DO NOT ALWAYS SUPPORT O_NONBLOCK
Description: sockets do not support all modes for O_NONBLOCK. Sockets
support only (1) TCP/IP non-blocking read operations when read-ahead
buffering is enabled, (2) TCP/IP accept() operations when TCP/IP
connection backlog is enabled, and (3) nonblocking operations on
Unix domain sockets.
REVISIT: UDP read-ahead buffering has been implemented. But I
do not think that the necessary bits of logic are in place to
permit non-clocking UDP reads.

blocking read operations when read-ahead buffering is

operations on Unix domain sockets.

Title: FIFO CLEAN-UP AFTER CLOSING UNIX DOMAIN SOCKET
Description: FIFOs are used as the IPC underlying local Unix domain sockets.
In NuttX, FIFOs are implemented as device drivers (not as
special files). The FIFO device driver is instantiated when
the Unix domain socket communications begin and will
automatically be released when (1) the driver is unlinked and
(2) all open references to the driver have been closed. But
there is no mechanism in place now to unline the FIFO when
the Unix domain socket is no longer used. The primary issue
is timing.. the FIFO should persist until it is no longer
needed. Perhaps there should be a delayed call to unlink()
(using a watchdog or the work queue). If the driver is re-
opened, the delayed unlink could be canceled? Needs more
thought.

NOTE: This is not an issue for Unix domain streams sockets:
The end-of-life of the FIFO is well determined when sockets
are disconnected and support for that case is fully implemented.

Priority: Low for now because I don't have a situation where this is a
problem for me. If you use the same Unix domain paths, then
