LibCore: Allow TCPServer's port to be reused after it exits

Browse source 
This hasn't been an issue on Serenity, but on Linux, if a program opens
a TCPServer on some port and then exits, that program can't be re-run
until the OS makes the port available again. This is usually ~2x the TCP
socket's maximum segment lifetime, upwards of a minute.

Add an option to TCPServer to allow re-using the port after the program
exits.
