socket: Enforce socket length

A Unix domain socket is limited to 107 usable bytes on Linux. However,
not all code creating socket paths was checking for this limits.

Created a new `utils.BuildSocketPath()` function (with tests) to
encapsulate the logic and updated all code creating sockets to use it.

Fixes #268.
