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.

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.
Add unit test to verify parsing of ftp://ftp.gnome.org/start?foo=bar@baz

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.

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.

As it turns out, we have examples of internal functions called
type_name_get_private() in the wild (especially among older libraries),
so we need to use a name for the per-instance private data getter
function that hopefully won't conflict with anything.
If the resolver reloads (ie, if /etc/resolv.conf changes),
GNetworkAddress needs to re-resolve its addresses the next time it's
enumerated. Otherwise hosts that have different IP addresses inside
and outside a VPN won't work correctly if you hold on to a
GNetworkAddress for them for a long time.

If a GNetworkAddress is created with a hostname like "fe80::xxx%em1",
make sure that the scope_id corresponding to "em1" is present in the
GSocketAddresses it returns when used as a GSocketConnectable.

The code that is checking the userinfo part was accidentally
given a pointer to the end of the userinfo, so it was not
checking the right portion of the string at all.
(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...
Previously, the code only initialized the enumerator if the address
hadn't had cached addresses. But creating an enumerator cached the
addresses, so the second one failed to work.
This patch implements method proxy_enumerate from GSocketConnectable for
all connectables (GNetworkAddress, GNetworkService, GInetSocketAddress
and GUnixSocketAddress).

This method allow creating a network address from a URI. If no port is
found in the URI, the default_port parameter will be used. Note that new
property scheme is there for future TLS implementation.

g_network_address_address_enumerator_next_finish takes the first item of the
address list and moves the pointer to the next one, so we shouldn't do the same
in g_network_address_address_enumerator_next_async function
Fixes bug #593941
Higher-level wrappers around GResolver. GSocketConnectable provides an
interface for synchronously or asynchronously iterating multiple
socket addresses, with GNetworkAddress and GNetworkService providing
interfaces based on hostname and SRV record resolution.
