Currently only the struct pid of the thread-group leader is recorded
for a socket's peer. To make room for the struct pid of the thread that
called connect(), listen() or socketpair() turn sk_peer_pid into an
array indexed by pid type. All users, including bluetooth and the
coredump socket, keep using the PIDTYPE_TGID slot.

Nothing fills the PIDTYPE_PID slot yet. No functional changes.

This patch suffers from missing kdoc and general inability to build:

Oh, damn, the automated pipeline should have done a per-patch build.
Fixing, thanks!

What's the merging path for these? Judging by the To: perhaps you
expect us to take these directly?

If you have no quarrels with me taking it through the vfs tree it would
help because I have other work on top of this. Otherwise a shared branch
also works.
