Adds support for binding "dual stack" sockets (via QUdpSocket or
QTcpServer). A dual stack socket will accept incoming connections on
either IPv4 or IPv6 interfaces.
QHostAddress::Any - use this to bind a dual stack socket
QHostAddress::AnyIPv6 - use this to bind a socket for IPv6 only
QHostAddress::AnyIPv4 - use this to bind a socket for IPv4 only
Binding to a specific address rather than one of the "any" addresses
is restricting you to a protocol anyway so no behaviour change there.
IPv6 sockets were previously dual stack on some OS and v6 only on others
Any previously meant IPv4 only
This commit implemented & tested on Windows 7, Linux (Ubuntu 10.04)
and Mac OS 10.6.7.
Windows XP and server 2003 do not support dual stack sockets, even though
they can support IPv6. On those versions, QHostAddress::Any will still
bind to IPv4 0.0.0.0 (which is also the behaviour anywhere QT_NO_IPV6 is
defined)
Autotests run:
qudpsocket (includes a new test case)
qtcpserver (includes a new test case)
qtcpsocket
qnetworkreply
qhostaddress

Ignore warning when the test intentionally sets an invalid socket descriptor.
Make sure to set content type on all http post tests in tst_qnetworkreply.
Run test with enough capabilities to avoid platsec errors when accessing
certificate store.
