net: add sock_init_data_uid()

Add sock_init_data_uid() to explicitly initialize the socket uid.
To initialise the socket uid, sock_init_data() assumes a the struct
socket* sock is always embedded in a struct socket_alloc, used to
access the corresponding inode uid. This may not be true.
Examples are sockets created in tun_chr_open() and tap_open().
