Fix error message when a hostaddr cannot be parsed.

hlinnaka · hlinnaka · commit b90d97e08141 · 2018-07-19T20:24:29.000+03:00
We were incorrectly passing hostname, not hostaddr, in the error message, and because of that, you got: $ psql 'hostaddr=foo' psql: could not parse network address "(null)": Name or service not known Backpatch to v10, where this was broken (by commit 7b02ba6).
