I committed the op_getsockname man page under the wrong name, because I originally wrote the code and manpage as a main io_uring command and then converted to a uring_cmd but forgot to update the manpage. Following this, Jens pushed an AI generated version of this page with the correct name and almost the same content. While the AI version is okay-ish, it is missing relevant details, like differences in error codes to the original syscall. So I'm replacing the AI with my version, minus a few corrections. There is no point in lingering the wrong named version around, as there is no function with that name. Reported by exbigboss on Discord.
