Document tools/macro_builder and tidy up serve_header.py

tools/macro_builder generates the NLOHMANN_JSON_EXPAND,
NLOHMANN_JSON_GET_MACRO and NLOHMANN_JSON_PASTE* macros in
macro_scope.hpp, but nothing referred to it. Add a README that explains
what it generates, how to run it and where the output goes, and which
dependent tables (NLOHMANN_JSON_DOUBLE_PASTE, NLOHMANN_JSON_TYPE_BODY)
are maintained by hand. Point to it from a comment above
NLOHMANN_JSON_EXPAND. The generator itself is unchanged; following the
README reproduces the header byte for byte.

In serve_header.py, drop the LGTM suppression (LGTM.com shut down in
2022), replace the """.""" placeholder docstrings with real ones, and
import socket and ssl at module level. DualStackServer.server_bind uses
socket, which was only imported under __main__; when the module was
imported instead, the NameError was swallowed and IPV6_V6ONLY was not
cleared.

The header change is a comment only; behavior, API and ABI are
unchanged.
