InetAddresses.forString does not correctly handle IPv6 addresses with scope_id

Issue: InetAddresses.forString throws IllegalArgumentException when given IPv6 address with scope_id instead of returning the correct Inet6Address with scope_id, and scope_id_set populated.

Affected guava versions: InetAddresses in all up to 15.0

Failing test case:

InetAddress ipv6AddressWithScopeId = InetAddresses.forString("fe80:0:0:0:c1e1:54cf:68bc:9d5e%12");

throws java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: 'fe80:0:0:0:c1e1:54cf:68bc:9d5e%12' is not an IP string literal.

InetAddresses.isInetAddress("fe80:0:0:0:c1e1:54cf:68bc:9d5e%12") return false.

Expected results:

InetAddresses.forString("fe80:0:0:0:c1e1:54cf:68bc:9d5e%12") returns Inet6Address(addr = "fe80:0:0:0:c1e1:54cf:68bc:9d5e", scope_id = 12);

InetAddresses.isInetAddress("fe80:0:0:0:c1e1:54cf:68bc:9d5e%12") returns true.

This is probably the same as #2587, which was fixed. Let us know if not.
