bpo-35545: Fix asyncio discarding IPv6 scopes (GH-11271)

This PR proposes a solution to [bpo-35545](https://bugs.python.org/issue35545) by adding an optional `flowinfo` and `scopeid` to `asyncio.base_events._ipaddr_info` to carry the full address information into `_ipaddr_info` and avoid discarding IPv6 specific information.

Changelog entry & regression tests to come.
