make inet_ntop format v4-mapped ipv6 addresses properly
based on a patch by orc. POSIX actually fails to specify the format of
the ntop conversion; presumably, any output that will correctly
round-trip back via the (well-specified) pton operation is acceptable.
the new behavior is much more convenient than the old, however.
this patch also affects getnameinfo, which is implemented in terms of
inet_ntop and which is the preferred interface for performing this
conversion.
I've also removed some inexplicable cruft (filling the buffer with 'x'
before doing anything) whose origin I was unable to track down.
