Description

From sockopt.cc

npm ERR! command failed npm ERR! command C:\Windows\system32\cmd.exe /d /s /c node-gyp-build

error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'sys/socket.h': No such file or directory

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate the build failure on Windows due to missing sys/socket.h. Look into conditionally including the appropriate Windows header (e.g., winsock2.h) and implement platform specific logic for socket options.
