CONFIG_NET_SOCKETS_POSIX_NAMES

By default, Sockets API function are prefixed with zsock_ to avoid namespacing issues. If this option is enabled, they will be provided with standard POSIX names like socket(), recv(), and close(), to help with porting existing code. Note that close() may require a special attention, as in POSIX it closes any file descriptor, while with this option enabled, it will still apply only to sockets.
