netconsole: add support for strings with new line in netpoll_parse_ip_addr

The current IP address parsing logic fails when the input string
contains a trailing newline character. This can occur when IP
addresses are provided through configfs, which contains newlines in
a const buffer.

Teach netpoll_parse_ip_addr() how to ignore newlines at the end of the
IPs. Also, simplify the code by:

 * No need to check for separators. Try to parse ipv4, if it fails try
   ipv6 similarly to ceph_pton()
 * If ipv6 is not supported, don't call in6_pton() at all.
