## Problem description

At my company we started using VPN that only works over IPv6.
Since that we started seeing below errors when connecting:

```
08:57:16 Encountered an error: Database Error ('communication error', gaierror(8, 'nodename nor servname provided, or not known'))
```

I looked into the code and it seems that the driver only works over ipv4.
I started a draft PR: https://github.com/aws/amazon-redshift-python-driver/pull/229
But I'm not sure whether that's enough.

Other SQL clients works fine over IPv6 (datagrip)

Línea de trabajo

Start by reviewing the connection code and draft PR #229, then reproduce the reported gaierror while connecting through an IPv6-only VPN on macOS with Python 3.9. Compare the driver's behavior with the reported working SQL clients and verify that the connection succeeds over IPv6 without breaking IPv4 support.
