The function `read_local_stream_port` had no proper handling for
unexpected or incomplete input.
When the control socket of the VSOCK device was closed without sending
the expected `CONNECT <PORT>\n` statement completely, the thread
got stuck in an infinite loop as it attempted to read from a closed
socket over and over again which never returned any data.
This resulted in the thread responsible for `epoll` being completely
blocked. New VSOCK connections could not be established and existing
ones became defunct, effectively leading to a Denial of Service of
the entire VSOCK device.
The issue can be reproduced by opening a socket and immediately
closing it.
```
socat - UNIX-CONNECT:/socket.vsock
<Ctrl-C>
```
Instead of applying a quick fix by handling the `EPOLLHUP` event before
reading, the function is refactored to remove the error-prone `while`
loop and multiple `read`s.
Notably, we now check if the number of bytes read is zero, which occurs
when `event_set == EPOLLHUP | EPOLLIN`, indicating that the socket has
been closed by the client.
Additionally, the actual parsing code is now extracted into a dedicated
function that is tested.
