tipc: Simplify enforcement of reserved name type prohibition
Streamlines the logic that prevents an application from binding a reserved TIPC name type to a port by moving the check to the code that handles a socket bind() operation. This allows internal TIPC subsystems to bind a reserved name without having to set an atomic flag to gain permission to use such a name. (This simplification is now possible due to the elimination of support for TIPC's native API.)
