Abstract unix domain socket may embed null characters,
these should be translated to '@' when printed out to
proc the same way the null prefix is currently being
translated.

This helps for tools such as netstat, lsof and the proc
based implementation in ss to show all the significant
bytes of the name (instead of getting cut at the first
null occurrence).

I think this patch is simpler if you just do the "@" translation
unconditionally, if it'll never trigger for the !UNIX_ABSTRACT case
that is perfectly fine.

Hi David, thanks for looking at it.

I've sent an updated patch.
Logically now, the 'else' block just above could be removed, but it
isn't obvious from the code that 'sun_path[0] == 0' so I left it as
is.
