Summary: curl does not fallback to A records when ipv6 connectionfail

Initial Comment:
curl -7.20.1
libcares 1.7.1

$curl http://tclers.tk
curl: (7) Failed to connect to 2002:3e70:9ee8::1001: Network is unreachable

I would expect curl to try the DNS records in turn until one succeeds and only
error out when all of them failed. (at least have the same behaviour that without c-ares)
