netconsole: add an address family to struct inet_addr

netconsole_target stores a single 'bool ipv6' to denote the target's
address family. This makes it hard to detect conditions like "no address
set" or ipv4/ipv6 mixup between local_ip and remote_ip.

Add a 'family' field to inet_addr so each address stores its own address
family: AF_UNSPEC while unset, else AF_INET or AF_INET6.

Nothing reads the new field yet. The next patch switches the users over
and removes the bool. No functional change.
