1) GNU Wget 1.21.2
2) wget https://download.qemu.org/qemu-8.2.0-rc3.tar.xz
3) I expected wget to show the combination of an IPv6 and a port like it is
usually done in URLs, namely in the syntax [address]:port (cf.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/URL#Syntax ).
4) wget shows the combination of an IPv6 and a port in the syntax
|address|:port
