inet/getaddrinfo: simplest /etc/gai.conf to control IPv6/IPv4 addresses sort order

Implement simplest variant of /etc/gai.conf to control getaddrinfo
IPv6/IPv4 addresses sorting. Keep the default sort order - IPv6 first,
IPv4 second. To invert it, create /etc/gai.conf containing single line:

 precedence ::ffff:0:0/96  100

Example before:

$ nslookup security.debian.org 8.8.8.8
Server:    8.8.8.8
Address 1: 8.8.8.8 google-public-dns-a.google.com

Name:      security.debian.org
Address 1: 2001:a78:5:0:216:35ff:fe7f:be4f villa.debian.org
Address 2: 2001:a78:5:1:216:35ff:fe7f:6ceb lobos.debian.org
Address 3: 195.20.242.89 wieck.debian.org
Address 4: 212.211.132.250 lobos.debian.org
Address 5: 212.211.132.32 villa.debian.org

After patch & precedence set in /etc/gai.conf:

$ nslookup security.debian.org 8.8.8.8
Server:    8.8.8.8
Address 1: 8.8.8.8 google-public-dns-a.google.com

Name:      security.debian.org
Address 1: 195.20.242.89 wieck.debian.org
Address 2: 212.211.132.250 lobos.debian.org
Address 3: 212.211.132.32 villa.debian.org
Address 4: 2001:a78:5:0:216:35ff:fe7f:be4f villa.debian.org
Address 5: 2001:a78:5:1:216:35ff:fe7f:6ceb lobos.debian.org
