When running the check on an ipv6 address with a sticky onredirect
policy like in this example:

  check_curl -6 -H example.com -I ::1 -f sticky

It results in a getaddrinfo error:

  HTTP CRITICAL - Unable to lookup IP address for '[::1]': getaddrinfo returned -3 - Temporary failure in name resolution

This happens because in check_http() if the content of server_addr is an
ipv6 address enclosing brackets are added and on redirection a
subsequent call to check_http() will pass this now bracketed value to
getaddrinfo resulting in the error.

To work around this, strip the brackets from the address prior to the
lookup_host() call.
