Research direction

Start by reading the deprecation concern in this issue and the linked Node.js issue about native getsockopt/setsockopt support. Determine whether a supported replacement for socket._handle can obtain the file descriptor; done requires removing the deprecated dependency or documenting that the work is blocked until Node.js provides the needed APIs.
