Xtranssock.c: avoid buffer overrun in SocketReopen
This function was constructing an address from a port string allocating
a buffer according to the size of the string but then later copying
the address according to sizeof(struct sockaddr).
This patch ensures that we allocate a struct sockaddr buffer with enough
space for the port string to be copied into sa_data[] and uses that
combined length to determine how much should be copied at the end of the
function.
This fixes a crash when using xwayland which uses ListenOnOpenFD() that
will call _XSERVTransReopenCOTSServer() with a short port string like
":1".
