Move AI_ADDRCONFIG into gaih_inet()

Attached patch moves AI_ADDCONFIG processing into gaih_inet(). This improves
things by making it not apply to literal IP addresses. However, AI_ADDCONFIG
will still be able to suppress results from both address families for things
coming out of /etc/hosts like for example "localhost". In order to prevent that
I think we'd need to move AI_ADDRCONFIG into _nss_dns_gethostbyname*(), which
is beyond my programmings skills to implement I'm afraid.
