Expand __receive_fd() with support for replace_fd() for the coming seccomp
"addfd" ioctl(). Add new wrapper receive_fd_replace() for the new behavior
and update existing wrappers to retain old behavior.

Thanks to Colin Ian King [off-list ref] for pointing out an
uninitialized variable exposure in an earlier version of this patch.

This is nitpicky but coding style technically wants us to use braces
around both branches if one of them requires them. ;)
Ah yeah, good point. Fixed. Thanks!
