After reboot with OpenBGPD package
the bgpd starts twice.

The sessions with neighbors that have set "local-address" gets establised,
but the the socket for bgpdctl "/var/run/bgpd.sock" is missing,

Shell and WEB-UI reports:
bgpctl: connect: /var/run/bgpd.sock: No such file or directory

openbgpd_restart();
is faiing in this case.

Suggested fixes:
a) avoid to start the deamon twice.
b) check the exitcode of "bgpctl", it fails then kill and restart it.
c) check the presense /var/run/bgpd.sock, if missing then kill and restart it.

as as workaround I added a "restartbgpd" for the PWP shell.
