:content
Reads data from a socket connection.

`max_length` limits how much data is read, and `timeout` controls how long the operation is allowed to wait.

:example
u64 fd = socket_connect("127.0.0.1", 80);
socket_write(fd, "GET / HTTP/1.0\r\nHost: localhost\r\nConnection: close\r\n\r\n");
String chunk = socket_read(fd, 1024, 2);
socket_close(fd);
print(str_starts_with(chunk, "HTTP/") ? "read an HTTP response from the server" : "no data", "\n");
