IPV6_V6ONLY is a little weird on freebsd

Sorry for making this issue. I'm not a FreeBSD user but I do support some.
When IPV6_V6ONLY is turned off, requests to v4 addresses appear to come from ::ffff:<v4-address> like ::ffff:127.0.0.1

"IIRC you get V6-notation for all address strings"
I'm not sure what the solution is. Make it configurable by the caller? ifdef for freebsd?
Just patch my local copy of httplib.h?
Thanks for this library. Just wanted to make a note of this, not necessarily get something changed.
