httpd: fix address family for reverse proxy client socket
When httpd proxies a request to another server, it first creates an AF_INET socket, then resolves the server name to a sockaddr, then connects to it. This fails if the server name resolves to an IPv6 address. This patch ensures that the socket is created with the correct address family (AF_INET6 if the server resolves to an IPv6 address and AF_INET otherwise).
