/*
* Find the domain name of 'address'.
*
* Notes:
*
* There are two reverse lookup formats for IPv6 addresses, 'bitstring'
* and 'nibble'. The newer 'bitstring' format for the address fe80::1 is
*
* \[xfe800000000000000000000000000001].ip6.int.
*
* The 'nibble' format for that address is
*
* 1.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.8.e.f.ip6.int.
*
* The 'bitstring' format will be used unless the DNS_BYADDROPT_IPV6NIBBLE
* option has been set.
*
* Requires:
*
* 'mctx' is a valid mctx.
