net: Ensure consistent binding to IPV6 if address is absent

See nodejs/node-v0.x-archive#7675
net.server.listen() behaves inconsistently depending on whether the port
number is provided.

1. port === 0 && host == '' (i.e. false-y), node creates an AF_INET
socket but does not call bind().

2. port > 0 && host == '', node creates an AF_INET6 socket and calls
bind().

The fix makes 1 consistent with 2.
