Bug #42412 IPv6 connection handling code bugs

Description:
1) Code for hostname to address cache in sql/hostname.cc has bug with pointer passed to search method in the ip_to_hostname() function.
This would probably result in a failure to find any address in the cache or a memory fault.  The cache would probably 'leak' entries.

2) Code for server socket binding in mysqld.cc has bug with address list iteration in network_init().  This could result in an infinite loop.

How to repeat:
1) Probably attempt to connect from multiple hostnames, observe effect on hostname cache etc.

2) Configure machine with >2 socket addresses for a given destination address, so that the first 2 will fail to be created with error INVALID_SOCKET.  Start up server.

Suggested fix:
Fix code.

      Bug#42412 IPv6 connection handling code bugs
      
      Fix some IPv6 connection handling bugs noticed in mysql-5.1-telco-6.4 branch.
      
      Note that committed but unpushed fix to bug 38247 fixes the issue in hostname.cc.

Locally committed a suggested fix for this bug.

Note that this bug touches some of the same issues as bug#38247, though it also fixes a mistake in mysqld.cc.

If/when bug#38247 is approved, it should be back-ported to mysql-5.1-telco-6.4

I'm fine with the patch.

Duplicate of bug#38247 which has been fixed in a number of separate bugs listed under under its report.

Closing.
