Add IPv6 support by implementing name resolution with the
protocol agnostic getaddrinfo(3) API. The old gethostbyname(3)
code is still available when git is compiled with NO_IPV6.

This is the second version of the patch ($gmane/280488)
Changes from previous:

- Simplified the implementation, avoiding the duplication of 
the function add_domainname (Jeff King) ($gmane/280512)

- Fixed a possible memory leak with getaddrinfo (Eric Sunshine)
  ($gmane/280507)
