Modifies the Net::Server library by bringing in the Socket6 module and setting up the socket itself instead of reyling on the IPv4-only IO::Socket::INET to do that work.

So, this patch applies against Net::Server.

Theoretically, if you run Dkimproxy with the patched Net::Server, you can have Dkimproxy *listen* on an IPv6 address.

The relay address must still be IPv4 however.

    patches Net::Server to give it (limited) IPv6 support

    This patch makes Net::Server::Proto::TCP a subclass of IO::Socket
    instead of IO::Socket::INET,
    and then implements, for itself, the functionality of IO::Socket::INET,
    but in a way that allows IPv4 *and* IPv6.
