Feature: Dual-stack works with `--p2p-port-ipv6` set to `--p2p-port` #8659

Description

Currently, with --p2p-interface 0.0.0.0,::, the --p2p-port and --p2p-port-ipv6 options need to be distinct.

This means additional configuration steps for users, whether for ufw or host-mapped docker ports.

From a networking perspective, the ports could be the same and a program could listen on v4 and v6. This is the standard behavior for dual-stack applications.
