For node's server.listen, if no hostname param is specified it'll adaptively pick the unspecified ipv6 address (
::
) when available or the unspecified ipv4 address (0.0.0.0
) otherwise. This fix gets rid of the behavior where we manually default to0.0.0.0
and rely on node's underlying handling of this.Since most modern systems should support ipv6, I also added a test case on this new behavior.
See here for the docs on node: https://nodejs.org/api/net.html#serverlistenport-host-backlog-callback:~:text=If%20host%20is%20omitted%2C%20the%20server%20will%20accept%20connections%20on%20the%20unspecified%20IPv6%20address%20(%3A%3A)%20when%20IPv6%20is%20available%2C%20or%20the%20unspecified%20IPv4%20address%20(0.0.0.0)%20otherwise.
