 - Fixed several underallocation issues that could trigger data corruption on `binary:replace`, `zlib:compress` and bsd socket recv code.
 - Fixed a bug where `catch` would raise on regular atom results
 - Fixed ESP32 socket driver holding the global socket-list lock across blocking TCP connects, leaking the port on connect failure, losing concurrent `accept` waiters, leaking `netbuf` on receive error paths, and a recycled-`netconn` race between socket close and the event handler
+- Fixed generic_unix TCP server sockets performing an abortive close that could truncate replies awaiting ack
