IPv6 hostname issue #711

Hi

Thank you for this wonderful tool.

Nowadays there is IP and legacy IP ;-)

I noticed that if a hostname resolves to both, IP and and old legacy IP, then MQTT-Explorer only attempts to connect to the old legacy IP and fails despite the GAI configuration stating that IP is preferred.

If the IP in [] instead of the hostname is specified, then the connection uses the ip version expected. I did not attempt to connect to a hostname with only an AAAA record.
