we want to accept V4 subnets in CIDR notation consistently which
means we need to interpret the mask in context of the IP address.
so parseipmask() now has an additional v4 flag argument which
offsets the prefixlength by 96 so a /24 will be interpreted
as a /120.
parseipandmask() is the new function which handles this automatically
depending on the ip address type.
v4parsecidr() is now obsolete.
