rootlessport: allow socket paths with more than 108 chars

Creating the rootlessport socket can fail with `bind: invalid argument`
when the socket path is longer than 108 chars. This is the case for
users with a long runtime directory.
Since the kernel does not allow to use socket paths with more then 108
chars use a workaround to open the socket path.

[NO TESTS NEEDED]
