[3.10] gh-119461: Fix ThreadedVSOCKSocketStreamTest (GH-129171) (#129440)

* [3.11] gh-119461: Fix ThreadedVSOCKSocketStreamTest (GH-129171)

Fix ThreadedVSOCKSocketStreamTest: if get_cid() returns the host
address or the "any" address, use the local communication address
(loopback): VMADDR_CID_LOCAL.

On Linux 6.9, apparently, the /dev/vsock device is now available but
get_cid() returns VMADDR_CID_ANY (-1).

* gh-119461: Restore the testSocket VSOCK skipUnless removed by PR #119465 (#129561)

Restore the skipUnless removed by #119465.

This test can only pass on virtual machines, not actual machines.

actual machines see:

```
    self.cli.connect((cid, VSOCKPORT))
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
OSError: [Errno 19] No such device
```

Reproduced on (Linux) Ubuntu 24.04.1 running 6.8.0-52-generic.
