Existing code calls connect() with a 'struct sockaddr_in6 *' argument
where a 'struct sockaddr *' argument is declared, yielding compile errors
when building for mips64el/musl-libc:

cc1: all warnings being treated as errors

This only compiles because of a glibc extension allowing declaration of the
argument as a "transparent union" which includes both types above.

Explicitly cast the argument to allow compiling for both musl and glibc.

Thanks for the fix and the details :) Indeed it looks like all other tests
perform this cast on connect (either to (void *) or (struct sockaddr *)) to
prevent this issue, so that's a miss on my side when I rewrote this test.
