If the ULP doesn't pass a hostname string to rpc_create(), it manufactures
one based on the passed-in address.  Be smart enough to handle an AF_INET6
address properly in this case.

Move the default servername logic before the xprt_create_transport() call
to simplify error handling in rpc_create().
