Jakub Stasiak 5e96efc8df test: use socat for oomd prekill hooks
Arch rolling now ships Nmap 7.991, which contains Nmap commit
b408fc2, titled "Ignore stdin with recv-only"[1].

That change omits stdin from the Ncat descriptor list in recv-only
mode. For a Unix listener, the listening socket is then its sole
descriptor. Ncat enters its listen loop only when that list has more
than one descriptor or a connection already exists, so it exits
immediately after bind and leaves the socket pathname behind.

systemd-oomd sees that stale pathname, tries to invoke the hook, and
gets ECONNREFUSED. The notification output therefore remains empty
and the jq assertion fails. The problem is visible in trunk's CI
failures[2].

Use socat for these one-way Unix listeners. It remains in accept while
waiting for the hook and is already installed in integration images.
