ded449b726 zmq: Enable IPv6 on listening socket (nthumann)

Pull request description:

  This PR adds support for listening on IPv6 addresses with bitcoinds ZMQ interface, just like the RPC server.
  Currently, it is not possible to specify an IPv6 address, as the `ZMQ_IPV6` [socket option](http://api.zeromq.org/master:zmq-setsockopt#toc27) is not set and therefore the ZMQ initialization fails, if one does so. The absence of this option has also been noted [here](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/15198#issuecomment-617378512).
  With this PR one can e.g. set `-zmqpubhashblock=tcp://[::1]:28333` to listen on the IPv6 loopback address.

improve connectivity in situations where long-lived connections are silently

Also, the socket's ZMQ_IPV6 option is enabled to accept connections from IPv6
hosts as well. If needed, this option has to be set on the client side too.
## Remarks
From the perspective of bitcoind, the ZeroMQ socket is write-only; PUB
