Details:
If wget resolves multiple ip addresses for a name it was given in a URL and a
connection to the first IP address it tries fails, should it not go on to try
other ip addresses returned rather than bombing out?
I.e.:
$ host downloads.lede-project.org
downloads.lede-project.org is an alias for downloads2.lede-project.org.
downloads2.lede-project.org has address 148.251.78.235
downloads2.lede-project.org has IPv6 address 2a01:4f8:202:43ea::3
$ wget
'http://downloads.lede-project.org/releases/17.01.4/packages/mips_24kc/base/Packages.gz'
Connecting to 2a01:4f8:202:43ea::3:80
Connection error: Connection failed
why does it not also try 148.251.78.235?
