SocketAddress.toNative

Converts a #GSocketAddress to a native struct sockaddr, which can be passed to low-level functions like connect() or bind().

If not enough space is available, a %G_IO_ERROR_NO_SPACE error is returned. If the address type is not known on the system then a %G_IO_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED error is returned.
