connect: Fix happy eyeballs logic for IPv4-only builds
Bug: https://github.com/bagder/curl/pull/168 (trynextip) - Don't try the "other" protocol family unless IPv6 is available. In an IPv4-only build the other family can only be IPv6 which is unavailable. This change essentially stops IPv4-only builds from attempting the "happy eyeballs" secondary parallel connection that is supposed to be used by the "other" address family. Prior to this change in IPv4-only builds that secondary parallel connection attempt could be erroneously used by the same family (IPv4) which caused a bug where every address after the first for a host could be tried twice, often in parallel. This change fixes that bug. An example of the bug is shown below. Assume MTEST resolves to 3 addresses 127.0.0.2, 127.0.0.3 and 127.0.0.4: * STATE: INIT => CONNECT handle 0x64f4b0; line 1046 (connection #-5000) * Rebuilt URL to: http://MTEST/ * Added connection 0. The cache now contains 1 members * STATE: CONNECT => WAITRESOLVE handle 0x64f4b0; line 1083 (connection #0) * Trying 127.0.0.2... * STATE: WAITRESOLVE => WAITCONNECT handle 0x64f4b0; line 1163 (connection #0) * Trying 127.0.0.3... * connect to 127.0.0.2 port 80 failed: Connection refused * Trying 127.0.0.3... * connect to 127.0.0.3 port 80 failed: Connection refused * Trying 127.0.0.4... * connect to 127.0.0.3 port 80 failed: Connection refused * Trying 127.0.0.4... * connect to 127.0.0.4 port 80 failed: Connection refused * connect to 127.0.0.4 port 80 failed: Connection refused * Failed to connect to MTEST port 80: Connection refused * Closing connection 0 * The cache now contains 0 members * Expire cleared curl: (7) Failed to connect to MTEST port 80: Connection refused The bug was born in commit bagder/curl@2d435c7.
