[issue20215] socketserver can not listen IPv6 address

[Martin Panter]

Martin Panter added the comment:

I’m no IPv6 expert, but see Lib/smtpd.py:657 and Issue 14758 for how this sort of thing was done for the SMTP server using getaddrinfo(). I think it is similar to David’s suggestion.

I also left a comment about the documentation. And it probably needs a test case as well.
