Description

When running boringtun on a system where IPv6 is disabled, I get:
`Socket("Address family not supported by protocol")`
and the process exits.

Strace indicates that the reason is indeed IPv6 socket creation:
`socket(AF_INET6, SOCK_DGRAM, IPPROTO_IP) = -1 EAFNOSUPPORT (Address family not supported by protocol)`
