Thomas Munro bcc8b14ef6 Remove configure probe for sockaddr_in6 and require AF_INET6.
SUSv3 <netinet/in.h> defines struct sockaddr_in6, and all targeted Unix
systems have it.  Windows has it in <ws2ipdef.h>.  Remove the configure
probe, the macro and a small amount of dead code.

Also remove a mention of IPv6-less builds from the documentation, since
there aren't any.

This is similar to commits f5580882 and 077bf2f2 for Unix sockets.  Even
though AF_INET6 is an "optional" component of SUSv3, there are no known
modern operating system without it, and it seems even less likely to be
omitted from future systems than AF_UNIX.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	https://www.postgresql.org/download/

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
https://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
