unix: drop dummy byte for oob in unixgram SendmsgN

This commit relaxes SendmsgN behavior of introducing a dummy 1-byte
payload when sending ancillary-only messages.
The fake payload is not needed for SOCK_DGRAM type sockets, and actually
breaks interoperability with other fd-passing software (journald is one
known example). This introduces an additional check to avoid injecting
dummy payload in such case.
