improve handling of dns resolution and ipv6 address when bound to an ipv4 socket #1

Description

@bmwill

A udp socket that is bound to an ipv4 address cannot trivially communicate with an ipv6 address. Despite this we should probably make a better effort when bound to an ipv4 address by:

  • looking at all addresses from the dns resolution process and find a suitable address (instead of always grabbing the first)
  • attempting to convert an ipv6 address to an ipv4 mapped address when possible.
