I extended the psock_fanout test with unbound fanout test.

As far as I understand, the easiest way to verify bind is to test that
po->prot_hook.dev != NULL, since we are under a bind_lock anyway.
But perhaps a more readable and direct approach to test "bind" would be
to test po->ifindex != -1, as ifindex is commented as "bound device".
However, at the moment ifindex is not initialized to -1, I can add such
initialization, but perhaps I do not fully understand all the logic.

Any preferences?
