sk: Add a method to obtain a socket for utility purposes.
The clock module will want to know the interface indexes, in order to implement link monitoring. However, the clock does not open any sockets directly. This helper function lets us keep the clock module free of socket level code. Signed-off-by: Richard Cochran <richardcochran@gmail.com>master
