* fe80::1 is not a loopback address
* ::ffff:127.* probably is (IPv4-mapped IPv6)

fix converting net.IPAddr to a multiaddr

Unfortunately, the existing abstraction couldn't handle the fact that the "ip"
net could parse to *either* an "/ip4/" or "/ip6/" multiaddr.

expose methods from underlying connection types

This sucks but I can't think of a better way to do this. We really do want to
expose these features and doing so through type assertions is very go-like.

turn NetListener() method on listener interface into a helper method

This method made implementing the manet.Listener interface annoying. Also, this
lets us drop the "use with caution" warning as we're now *wrapping* the listener
instead of exposing internal state.

Make the IP loopback check faster

Helps readers understand what they're looking at.

Decapsulate currently allocates a lot and this appears to have been causing some
issues (hard to tell, pprof is misbehaving).

Note: I removed the TODO as this function now *only* checks if we're dealing
with a loopback address. Not sure what `OverIPLoopback` was supposed to mean.

Note 2: Decapsulate actually checked if the IP6 loopback addresses
appeared *anywhere* in the multiadder. However, as we weren't doing this for
IP4, I decided to simplify this and only check prefixes.

use standard travis-ci scripts and enable sudo

This should fix CI.

Supersedes #34.

Added UDP datagram packet connection support.

It is slow and causes queue in whole org.

Check for local ip6 addresses with more flexbility

README/docs: Improved README, make golint happy

Currently IsIPLoopback returns true for any multiaddr starting ip4/127, but only returns true on ip6 addresses that exactly equal ip6/::1. So /ip6/::1/tcp/4001 for example does not return true. Instead we should check whether ip6/::1 is contained in the multiaddr, and to do that I simply decapsulated and checked to see if the result is different. It seems this was not caught by tests as none are present specifically for this function.
