docs: clarify --ipv4 and --ipv6 
Try to make the wording more clear. It is the addresses in the resolver
result that are affected, not anything regarding *how* resolving is
done.

Closes #20585

Request only IPv6 addresses when resolving hostnames, and not for example any IPv4.

Your resolver may still respond to an IPv6-only resolve request by returning IPv6 addresses that contain "mapped" IPv4 addresses for compatibility purposes. macOS is known to do this.
