johnny suggested added a local_port member to the SilcSocket struct,
however this would require rewriting large parts to keep the whole thing
consistent (the listening sockets are using the port member which is
here refering to a local port for example). Furthermore, the fd contains
more data than only the local port, which might be needed to check
incoming connections in future extensions (i.e. to restrict certain
connections to certain interfaces).
