In my opinion, AI_ADDRCONFIG is a useful default flag and prevents
unneccessary delay and lookups.

4. Add APR_NUMERIC_ADDRESS, and set the AI_NUMERICHOST hint, when
passed *don't* set AI_ADDRCONFIG. Document that people who
want to perform a literal IP translation - regardless of
connectivity - should use it.
E.g., if I want to turn "::1" into a structure I can use
and I totally don't care if I have general IPv6 connectivity
or if I even have connectivity to ::1 itself, I should use this
flag.
