Several locations in the stack need to handle ipv4/ipv6
(with scope) and port strings conversion to sockaddr.
Add a helper that takes either AF_INET, AF_INET6 or
AF_UNSPEC (for wildcard) to centralize this handling.

Accept -1 as delimiter to abort parsing without an error at the first

helper, where addresses are delimited by either '\r' or '\n' characters.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
