net: add sequential and RFC 6555-compliant TCP dialing.
dialSerial connects to a list of addresses in sequence. If a timeout is specified, then each address gets an equal fraction of the remaining time, with a magic constant (2 seconds) to prevent "dial a million addresses" from allotting zero time to each. Normally, net.Dial passes the DNS stub resolver's output to dialSerial. If an error occurs (like destination/port unreachable), it quickly skips to the next address, but a blackhole in the network will cause the connection to hang until the timeout elapses. This is how UNIXy clients traditionally behave, and is usually sufficient for non-broken networks. The DualStack flag enables dialParallel, which implements Happy Eyeballs by racing two dialSerial goroutines, giving the preferred family a head start (300ms by default). This allows clients to avoid long timeouts when the network blackholes IPv4 xor IPv6.
