Internal webserver can be started multiple times on the same port

[mvorisek]

Description

The following code:

php.exe -S 127.0.0.1:8080 -t .

Resulted in this output:

[Mon Dec 25 16:36:46 2023] PHP 8.3.0 Development Server (http://127.0.0.1:8080) started

But I expected this output instead:

error if another server is already started on the same port

IDK if this is only a Windows issue, but I would expect php webserver to require listening port exclusively on any OS.

PHP Version

any (tested 7.4 and 8.3)

Operating System

Windows

this is really a default windows behavior, I think windows just need a specific socket option to be on the same page with unixes.
