This is a convenience method for creating a GNetworkAddress which is
guaranteed to return IPv4 and IPv6 loopback addresses. The program
cannot guarantee that 'localhost' will resolve to both types of
address, so programs which wish to connect to a local service over
either IPv4 or IPv6 must currently manually create an IPv4 and another
IPv6 socket, and detect which of the two are working. This new API
allows the existing GSocketConnectable machinery to be used to
automate that.
Based on a patch from Philip Withnall.

GResolver doesn't do full validation of its inputs, so in some of
these tests, the fact that we were getting back
G_RESOLVER_ERROR_NOT_FOUND is because the junk string was getting
passed to an upstream DNS resolver, which returned NXDOMAIN. But if
there's no network on the machine then we'd get
G_RESOLVER_ERROR_INTERNAL instead in that case.
Make sure that the @ sign is inside the authority part before attempting
to parse the userinfo. We do this by checking if the @ sign comes before
any of the possible authority delimiters.

In addition to the standard "192.168.1.1" format, there are numerous
legacy IPv4 address formats (such as "192.168.257",
"0xc0.0xa8.0x01.0x01", "0300.0250.0001.0001", "3232235777", and
"0xc0a80101"). However, none of these forms are ever used any more
except in phishing attempts. GLib wasn't supposed to be accepting
these addresses (neither g_hostname_is_ip_address() nor
g_inet_address_new_from_string() recognizes them), but getaddrinfo()
accepts them, and so the parts of gio that use getaddrinfo()
accidentally did accept those formats.
Fix GNetworkAddress and GResolver to reject these address formats.

In some virtualization setups, ifindexes can end up becoming very
large, and so the existing code that assumes that *some* interface
must have an index less than 255 fails.
Fix this by explicitly looking for "lo" first. And then if that fails
(on Windows, or other systems where the loopback interface is not
called "lo"), try indexes up to 1024 rather than 255.

GNetworkAddress was allowing IPv6 scope ids in g_network_address_new()
/ g_network_address_parse(), but not in g_network_address_parse_uri().
Fix that.

Very many testcases, some GLib tools (resource compiler, etc) and
GApplication were calling g_type_init().
Remove those uses, as they are no longer required.

(which shouldn't ever have been part of the API. Grr.)
Solaris /etc/services doesn't even have "http", which was causing
tests/network-address to fail...
