MacOS seems to require SO_REUSEPORT just like Linux. #138

Hello,

I have tried running multiple threads as you describe in the docs, but without this change, it wasn't willing to do it on my Mac.

I don't know if this is a change in how MacOS works, or it was always the case that uWebsockets only worked on 1 thread.

Let me know what you think about adding this little change. Thank you, Baldvin

This socket option is not the same as on Linux. They have the same name but different behavior.

What you want is more like FreeBSD SO_REUSEPORT_LB but that's not available on macOS

Oh, wow! Thank you for the information, and sorry for wasting your time with this. 1 thread for MacOS then :)
