**********
* Deprecate the :kconfig:option:`CONFIG_NET_SOCKETS_POSIX_NAMES` option. It is a legacy option
and was used to allow user to call BSD socket API while not enabling POSIX API.
This could cause complications when building applications that wanted to enable the
:kconfig:option:`CONFIG_POSIX_API` option. This means that if the application wants to use
normal BSD socket interface, then it needs to enable :kconfig:option:`CONFIG_POSIX_API`.
If the application does not want or is not able to enable that option, then the socket API
calls need to be prefixed by a ``zsock_`` string.
All the sample applications that use BSD socket interface are changed to enable
:kconfig:option:`CONFIG_POSIX_API`. Internally the network stack will not enable POSIX API
option which means that various network libraries that use sockets, are converted to
use the ``zsock_*`` API calls. (:github:`69950`)
* The zperf zperf_results struct is changed to support 64 bits transferred bytes (total_len)
and test duration (time_in_us and client_time_in_us), instead of 32 bits. This will make
the long-duration zperf test show with correct throughput result.
