bug#22582: 25.0.90; package-test fail on w64

[Fabrice Popineau]

If I run the package-test-server.py and I try to connect from a browser with

http://0.0.0.0:8000/archive-contents, I get ERR_ADDRESS_INVALID.

But that I have the same error if I try to open:

http://xx.xx.xx.xx:8000/archive-contents with xx.xx.xx.xx being my current IP address.

I get the file only if I connect to http://127.0.0.1:8000/archive-contents.

So I suspect that it is a default setting of the firewall in Windows 10.

The python server script 

test/automated/data/package/package-test-server.py

runs explicitly on 127.0.0.1, so why not using this address in the test?

What does using 0.0.0.0 brings here in the package-test-update-archives-async test?

Thanks.  I guess it's something new with Windows 10, then.  (Error
10049 means "The requested address is not valid in its context.")
