RFR [12] 8215292: Back out changes for node- and link- local ipv6 multicast address

Hello,

Please review the following change:

 http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~prappo/8215292/webrev.00

That change backs out the fix for "Bind to node- or linklocal ipv6 multicast
address fails" [1]. The change in question is produced as:

    hg diff -c 23b3a46fa159 --reverse --git

After I have applied the fix for JDK-8210493 some tests started to fail, even
though initial testing didn't show any signs of the problem. It now makes sense
to back those changes out, create a separate bug, investigate and fix the issue.

The new bug has been created [2] with the title:

  "Provide a better fix for binding to node- and link- local ipv6 multicast
  addresses"

Apologies for any inconvenience caused.

Thanks,
-Pavel
