Raise errors when compiling c socket to wasm

[hungryzzz]

Hi, I write a C program which will send an HTTP request to a server and it can run successfully when compiling it to machine code.

When I try to use wasi-sdk to compile it, I encounter the following errors. It seems that wasi-sdk cannot find the socket library API. What should I do to compile it successfully? Thank you very much!
