unix: add IoctlSetPointerInt

IoctlSetPointerInt is necessary for interacting with the PPP kernel
driver, which wants it passed as a pointer to int, rather than the
more conventional int cast as a pointer.

We can technically do this already with
IoctlSetInt(int(uintptr(unsafe.Pointer(&foo)))), but that's just
masking the operation we're trying to execute in the first place,
and relying on the internals of IoctlSetInt to do the right
inverse transformation.
