RFR: 7100957 : Java doesn't correctly handle the SOCKS protocol when used over IPv6

[Dimitar Mavrodiev]

Greetings all,

I've fixed this and created a test to cover it, is there a sponsor who
could push this through? Here's a link to the webrev
https://googledrive.com/host/0B2CI6Ih--1t5bVVwbVlBRmpVMDg/index.html.

It's a simple fix that correctly consumes the bytes from a SOCKS reply
which represent an IPv6 address or a domain name. I also had to fix
SocksServer as it was not correctly constructing a String representation of
an IPv6 address from byte[].

I didn't find it necessary to cover the case of DOMAIN_NAME in the test as
name resolution happens locally and not on the SOCKS server, which is
perhaps worth another fix.

Best,
Dimitar Mavrodiev
