  Don't require root privileges unless necessary

On Linux, if /proc/sys/net/core/[rw]mem_max are set to at least
8388608 (KNET_RING_RCVBUFF), setting the socket buffer sizes
doesn't require root privileges.

FreeBSD uses the kern.ipc.maxsockbuf sysctl MIB variable for
capping user buffer requests.

Linux doubles the requested amount for administrative overhead,
but FreeBSD does not, so we can't be too strict when checking
the results.

  Log Message:
  -----------
  Remove the need_root() function

The point is not having root privileges, but having high enough socket
buffer caps.  Very few of the test can run without it.
