URL parse: reject numerical IPv6 addresses outside brackets
Roman Mamedov spotted (in http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=670126) that curl would not complain when given a URL with an IPv6 numerical address without brackets. It would simply cut off the last ":[hex]" part and thus not work correctly. That's a URL using an illegal syntax and now libcurl will instead return a clear error code and error message detailing the error. The above mentioned bug report claims this to be a regression but libcurl does not guarantee functionality when given URLs that aren't following the URL spec (RFC3986 mostly). I consider the fact that it used to handle this differently a mere coincidence.
