Set lookup_family_order = ipv6_first on IPv6-only clients #4455

Look at the IPs configured on the interface that the client connects
to IPA with. If this interface has only IPv6 addresses configured
the set the option lookup_family_order to ipv6_first. This will
prefer IPv6 DNS names and will allow an IPv6-only client to be able
to connect to a mixed IPv4/IPv6 IPA installation.

NOTE: I'm being conservative here and not using ipv6_only. This is an attempt to ensure that things will continue to work if the underlying network changes int he future.
