Subject: [PATCH] Use best effort address binding to connect to the master
We usually want to reach the master using the address of the interface
Redis is bound to (via the "bind" config option). That's useful since
the master will get (and publish) the slave address getting the peer
name of the incoming socket connection from the slave.
However, when this is not possible, for example because the slave is
bound to the loopback interface but repliaces from a master accessed via
an external interface, we want to still connect with the master even
from a different interface: in this case it is not really important that
the master will provide any other address, while it is vital to be able
to replicate correctly.
Related to issues #2609 and #2612.
