InetAddresses#ipStringToBytes() fails to parse ipv6 with scope

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Dear Guava team,

the InetAddresses#ipStringToBytes() fails to parse ipv6 with scope:

InetAddresses.isInetAddress("fe80:0:0:0:230:48ff:fed3:e52%2"))

will always returns false.

For example code:

InetAddress addr = InetAddress.getByName("fe80:0:0:0:230:48ff:fed3:e52%2");
String addrString = addr.getHostAddress();

if (isInetAddress(addrString)) {
   .....
}

will never work. This is true as well, when IPv6 address taken by querying 
network interfaces.

A possible fix (with corresponding unit test):
