Michael Kerrisk a2b8b6d657 connect.2, getpeername.2, getsockname.2: Use consistent argument names
Most other sockets pages are using the names 'addr'
and 'addrlen'; make these pages do the same.

Many pages still mention use of the obsolete sysctl(2) system
call, or used the term "sysctls"; rewrite these mentions to
instead be in terms of /proc interfaces.

Michael Kerrisk d4c8c97c31 s/PF_/AF_/ for socket family constants. Reasons: the AF_ and
PF_ constants have always had the same values; there never has
been a protocol family that had more than one address family,
and POSIX.1-2001 only specifies the AF_* constants.
