- ClientTCP resolves with AF_UNSPEC and tries every address the name
resolves to, in getaddrinfo's order, the way Python's
socket.create_connection does. It used to ask for AF_INET only and keep
the first answer, so `localhost` could not reach a server listening on
::1 alone, which is what a dev server on a recent Node does. The connect
timeout bounds each address on its own; when none connects, what the
last one failed with is thrown.
- A failed resolve, socket() or connect throws SocketErrorException: the
std::runtime_error it always was, with the same message, plus the errno
(SocketErrorKind::System) or the getaddrinfo code
(SocketErrorKind::Resolver). A caller that reports the cause in its own
words, such as a Python-style "[Errno 111] Connection refused", no
longer has to parse it back out of the text.
- The move constructor carries the resolved addresses along.
