Fix RES_USE_INET6 description

The previous wording implied this option does nothing, which is wrong. This option does affect the way gethostbyname(3) works on OpenBSD (return IPv6 addresses if available). On some systems, it also introduces IPv4-mapped IPv6 addresses, a "feature" that we don't support. ok deraadt@ eric@

snprintf/vsnprintf return < 0 on error, rather than -1.

When system calls indicate an error they return -1, not some arbitrary

value < 0. errno is only updated in this case. Change all (most?) callers of syscalls to follow this better, and let's see if this strictness helps us in the future.

sockatmark(3), recv(2), getsockopt(2), and connect(2) return specifically

2019-06-20T14:19:25+00:00

-1 to mark failure, not arbitrary values < 0. I believe manual pages should follow the described contract precisely and accurately.
