    Treat all 127.0/16 addresses as loopback
    
    Many places treat loopback addresses specially; they are skipped over
    when traversing local interface lists, and they are sometimes replaced
    with the public IP of the local hostname when interpreting user
    arguments.
    
    However, we only treated 127.0.0.1 as 'loopback'. Many systems can
    have more than one loopback interface, such as having an interface
    with the address 127.0.0.2. So, to catch these, treat everything in
    127.0/16 as a loopback address or otherwise 'invalid' address. We
    still do not treat the rest of 127/8 like this, to still allow some
    127.* addresses to not be treated as loopback if someone really wants
    to.
