FEATURE: Support 'Happy Eyeballs' in FinalDestination::HTTP (#41680)
Ruby 3.4 shipped support for happy eyeballs in `Socket.tcp` and
`TCPSocket`. However, our `FinalDestination::HTTP` wrapper was
performing a DNS lookup and passing IP addresses one at a time when
opening the socket. That meant that we didn't benefit from the new Ruby
feature in most Discourse features.

This commit factors the strategy. Now, `FinalDestination::HTTP` encodes
the DNS result and passes it to the underlying implementation as a fake
hostname string. A patch to `Addrinfo` detects this fake hostname and
returns the given IPs instead of performing its own lookup.

For this Addrinfo patch to work, we also had to patch `TCPSocket` so
that it uses the ruby-based `Socket.tcp` rather than its native C
socket-opening code.

The result is that we now get the benefit of the native Ruby 'Happy
Eyeballs' support for concurrent ipv4 and ipv6 connections.

All this patching of low-level ruby classes is not ideal, but there is
no native way to control name resolution in `Net::HTTP` or its
dependencies.
