RELEASE_ASSERT when creating upstream connection and socket call failed with ENOBUFS

Title: Envoy is hitting RELEASE_ASSERT when creating upstream connection and socket call failed with ENOBUFS

Description:

When creating upstream connection, if socket call fails, envoy crashes due to following RELEASE_ASSERT

From envoy service log assert failure: SOCKET_VALID(result.return_value_). Details: socket(2) failed, got error: No buffer space available

https://github.com/envoyproxy/envoy/blob/main/source/common/network/socket_interface_impl.cc#L71

Need to add error handling in this case. Instead of crashing, we can just drop the request.

Repro steps:

We are running envoy as edge reverse proxy on a custom OS with FreeBSD-based networking stack. The socket buffers are allocated from a UMA (https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=uma&sektion=9) zone. The stress test is inducing network failures which causes the socket memory pool to get exhausted (mostly because of a distributed storage protocol). So it is not the case that the system or envoy process is generally OOM. In fact, the system recovers well once the network failures are cleared. Only envoy crashes.
