Error in `connect_to_net`

[edwardalee]

The function connect_to_net in lf_socket_support.c has a serious error that I think is new. It has this line:

  memcpy(priv->server_hostname, sock_params->server_hostname, INET_ADDRSTRLEN);

The constant INET_ADDRSTRLEN is 16. I tried to create a federation where I specify:

federated reactor at lf-mac.eecs.berkeley.edu { ...}

I get this error message:

Fed 1 (b_main): ERROR: No host matching given hostname: lf-mac.eecs.berk

Notice the host name truncated to 16 characters.
I think 16 characters will only work for IPv4 IP addresses.
But we need to support IPv6 and symbolic hostnames.
I think we should fix this before releasing the next LF version.

Oh, I see. I'll try fixing it by tomorrow.

One thing I need to check is the address query sending the IP. I'll open a PR on this issue.
