Subject: [PATCH] XDM: Add support for clients that sent ipv4 addresses to a dual-stacked host

If a client sends an ipv4 address to a dual-stacked xdm that is bound to a ipv6
socket in a forward request, then the packet was silently discarded. Now the
address is encapsulated as a ipv4-mapped address and a response is send back.
