I think you may have mis-read my comment. I think we need to add `@see 
InetAddress4#ofPosixLiteral(String)` to InetAddress.ofLiteral, not 
Inet4Address.ofLiteral. The reason is that methods defined by Inet4Address are 
not very discoverable and there is no reference to ofPosixLiteral in 
InetAddress's class description or anywhere else.
