Merge bitcoin/bitcoin#22079: zmq: Add support to listen on IPv6 addresses 
e6998838e5 doc: Add IPv6 address to zmq example (nthumann)
8abe5703a9 test: Add IPv6 test to zmq (nthumann)
ded449b726 zmq: Enable IPv6 on listening socket (nthumann)

Pull request description:

  This PR adds support for listening on IPv6 addresses with bitcoinds ZMQ interface, just like the RPC server.
  Currently, it is not possible to specify an IPv6 address, as the `ZMQ_IPV6` [socket option](http://api.zeromq.org/master:zmq-setsockopt#toc27) is not set and therefore the ZMQ initialization fails, if one does so. The absence of this option has also been noted [here](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/15198#issuecomment-617378512).
  With this PR one can e.g. set `-zmqpubhashblock=tcp://[::1]:28333` to listen on the IPv6 loopback address.

Bitcoin Core

Setup

Bitcoin Core is the original Bitcoin client and it builds the backbone of the network. It downloads and, by default, stores the entire history of Bitcoin transactions, which requires a few hundred gigabytes of disk space. Depending on the speed of your computer and network connection, the synchronization process can take anywhere from a few hours to a day or more.

To download Bitcoin Core, visit bitcoincore.org.

Running

The following are some helpful notes on how to run Bitcoin Core on your native platform.

Unix

Unpack the files into a directory and run:

  • bin/bitcoin-qt (GUI) or
  • bin/bitcoind (headless)

Windows

Unpack the files into a directory, and then run bitcoin-qt.exe.

macOS

Drag Bitcoin Core to your applications folder, and then run Bitcoin Core.
