Alan M. Carroll commented on TS-4640:
-------------------------------------
If it is an address, it should use the existing {{ats_is_ip_loopback}} which
works for both IPv4 and IPv6. I suppose we could overload that with {{const
char*}} and {{std::string const&}} to do the name / string comparisons.
> Create ts_is_localhost() in lib/ts to unify "localhost" comparisons

> ATS currently has multiple places where a comparison of a host is made to
> localhost. We should create one function that does it and replace all the
> various implementations with this function.
