#21655: usock doesn't support IPv6 link local addresses

-----------------------+------------------------
usock() doesn't support IPv6 link local addresses. The call to
getaddrinfo in usock_inet passes in an addrinfo hints with ai_flags set to
AI_ADDRCONFIG, which filters out IPv6 link local addresses. This prevents
logd from logging to IPv6 link local hosts. Ideally, it should try the
current method first and the the method without AI_ADDRCONFIG set.
From usocket.c:
{{{
#!div style="font-size: 80%"
Code highlighting:
{{{#!c
89 struct addrinfo hints = {
90 .ai_family = (type & USOCK_IPV6ONLY) ? AF_INET6 :
91 (type & USOCK_IPV4ONLY) ? AF_INET :
AF_UNSPEC,
92 .ai_socktype = socktype,
93 .ai_flags = AI_ADDRCONFIG
94 | ((type & USOCK_SERVER) ? AI_PASSIVE : 0)
95 | ((type & USOCK_NUMERIC) ? AI_NUMERICHOST :
0),
96 };
97 int sock = -1; }}}
