Bug Description
In several places, including the tcp migration code, qemu uses gethostbyname and inet_aton to construct a sockaddr_in. These should be replaced by the more modern getaddrinfo for both connect and accept, along with a loop to try all returned addrinfo structs on the connecting side. This would also allow migration over IPv6.
