bug#65399: [PATCH] web: Fix non-IPv4 default socket.

[Leo Nikkilä via Bug reports for GUILE, GNU's Ubiquitous Extension Language]

PF_INET sockets were being created by default with #:family AF_INET6 or
AF_UNIX, resulting in

    In procedure bind: Address family not supported by protocol

* module/web/server/http.scm (make-default-socket): Use #:family.
* doc/ref/web.texi (Web Server): Fix quoting in documentation, bind to
suitable address.
* test-suite/tests/web-server.test: Test it.
