Handle ETOOMANYREFS when sending recursive fds (SCM_RIGHTS)

Since Linux commit 25888e (from 2.6.37-rc4, Nov 2010), sendmsg() on Unix
sockets returns -1 errno=ETOOMANYREFS ("Too many references: cannot splice")
when the passfd mechanism (SCM_RIGHTS) is "abusively" used recursively by
applications. A malicious client could use this to force a victim system
service to be disconnected from the system bus; the victim would likely
respond by exiting. This is a denial of service (fd.o #80163,
CVE-2014-3532).

This patch silently drops the D-Bus message on ETOOMANYREFS and does not close
the connection.
