#65558: tcp_wrappers: header file tcpd.h doesn't guard against multiple inclusion,
potentially causing build errors in dependents

While one might argue that dependent projects should avoid including the
same header multiple times, that's not always easy to avoid. Hence the
reason why headers include guards, preventing errors when that occurs.
One real-world example is `openldap` 2.6.x, when variant `+wrappers` is
enabled:
{{{
In file included from util-int.c:950:
/opt/local/include/tcpd.h:20:16: error: redefinition of 'sockaddr_gen'
typedef struct sockaddr_gen {
^
../../include/lutil.h:24:11: note: '/opt/local/include/tcpd.h' included
multiple times, additional include site here
# include <tcpd.h>
^
util-int.c:950:11: note: '/opt/local/include/tcpd.h' included multiple
times, additional include site here
# include <tcpd.h>
^
/opt/local/include/tcpd.h:20:16: note: unguarded header; consider using
#ifdef guards or #pragma once
typedef struct sockaddr_gen {
^
}}}
Patch said header, to include a guard.
