linux allows adding ip rules with actions such as RTN_PROHIBIT or
RTN_BLACKHOLE to the loopback interface, e.g.:
ip -6 rule add from all iif lo lookup unspec prohibit
if the loopback interface also has ipv6 disabled:
sysctl net/ipv6/conf/lo/disable_ipv6=1
the connect() in getaddrinfo will return EACCES or EINVAL,
respectively, and getaddrinfo will erroneously return early.
this may sound like a perverse misconfiguration, but it happens easily
on openwrt systems where ipv6 has been disabled, as openwrt's netifd
by default sets up these rules (with a custom RTN_POLICY_FAILED
action, which behaves like RTN_PROHIBIT in this case).
