mbproxy: add keepalive / connection monitoring

The DL205/DL260 ECOM emits no TCP keepalives, so an idle backend socket
can be silently dropped by a middlebox (switch, firewall, NAT) after
2-5 minutes. Enable OS SO_KEEPALIVE on backend and accepted upstream
sockets, and drive a periodic synthetic FC03 heartbeat on each idle
backend socket so a dead path is detected before a real client request
hits it. Controlled by Connection.Keepalive (ON by default).
