Description
I know you're already working (or will work) on supporting Preview 2.
It would be important to support the sockets component, both when targeting a runtime like Node.js, or the browser.
Use case: rewriting an extension which uses the Node.js net.Socket or tls.TLSSocket in WebAssembly.
Supported runtimes:
- Node.js: binding to TCP socket via Node.js APIs
- Browser: wrapping a WebSocket instance

The issue names no files or tests. Start by reviewing the existing WASI Preview 2 support and the Node.js net.Socket/tls.TLSSocket and browser WebSocket entry points; done means sockets work in both listed runtimes.
