net.IP is defined as:

type IP []byte

prior to this PR, envconfig was interpretting that type of anything
that was a slice of uint8 (including []byte) as a String.

That is the correct behavior if you really have a []uint8,
but types that happen to be []uint8 should be reported
as their actual type.

That is the correct behavior if you really have a []uint8,
but types that *happen* to be []uint8 should be reported
as their actual type.
