phosphor-rest-server: connect with the correct sockaddr size
With the obmc-console-server binding to the correct socket, this is not
needed.
Abstract unix sockets start with the nul-charater, but are not nul
terminated. In fact, the nul-character has no meaning in the path.
According to the man page unix(7),
abstract: an abstract socket address is distinguished (from a pathname
socket) by the fact that sun_path[0] is a null byte ('\0').
The socket's address in this namespace is given by the
additional bytes in sun_path that are covered by the
specified length of the address structure. (Null bytes in
the name have no special significance.)
This means that when calling bind/connect, the size of the sockaddr
structure is not sizeof(sockaddr_un), it is sizeof(sockaddr_un) -
sizeof(sun_path) + (path_len)
