Make Frontend/Backend connection works when BE is set to use IPv6 link-
local address
BackendServerIP6 has created by mythtv-setup will contain the scope Id.
That scope id is only valid on the machine mythtv-setup was run on.
We must remove that scope id before attempting to use it, as otherwise the
connection would fail.
IPv6 link-local addresses do cause a problem has all network interfaces
have one. We attempt to determine the scope id by trying to connect to the
backend using each active interfaces. Once the scope Id is found, we cache
it for later use.
This fixes #10921
(cherry picked from commit 5594a6f32e73b0519b556b63983786a01a0f2228)
