bug#23658: 25.1.50; make-network-connection fails to connect to IPv6 address on Windows

[Fran]

Removing the ":nowait t" makes it connect successfully to the IPv6
address. In that case, it works regardless of whether ":family 'ipv6"
is present. If this were my personal code that would be a sufficient
workaround, but I found this bug in ERC (the Emacs IRC client), and I
think it is designed so that make-network-process has to connect
asynchronously.
