CLOUDSTACK-7121: agent: Make IPv4/IPv6 preference configurable

This allows us to have the Agent connect to the Management Server
over IPv6 if that is listening on :::8250

With this patch it is possible to deploy a IPv6-only KVM Agent where
IPv4 traffic is still forwarded over the bridges, but the KVM Agent
itself does not have IPv4 connectivity.

> Currently the KVM Agent forces it's connection over IPv4. Although the management server also listens on port 8250 on IPv6 the Agent still forces the connection over IPv4.
> We should also allow this to be over IPv6 so administrators can deploy hypervisors with IPv6-only while Instances still have IPv4 connectivity.
