In the Request.java code the parsing of host:port fails when an IPv6 address is used in the http host field.

I have added a suggestion in the below code-snippet that will avoid interpreting one of the colons in an IPv6 address as a port colon.

---
            for (int i=hostPort.length();i-->0;)   
            {
		/* support for IPv6 address without ports */
                if (hostPort.peek(hostPort.getIndex()+i)==']') {
		    break;
		}
                if (hostPort.peek(hostPort.getIndex()+i)==':')
                {
                    _serverName=BufferUtil.to8859_1_String(hostPort.peek(hostPort.getIndex(), i));
                    _port=BufferUtil.toInt(hostPort.peek(hostPort.getIndex()+i+1, hostPort.length()-i-1));
                    return _serverName;
                }
            }

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. start up jetty with jetty -jar start.jar jetty.port=80
2. browse to a IPv6 based address (that you happen to have on one of your interfaces - I used aaaa::1 on a microsoft loopback adapter)
3. browse to http:://[aaaa::1]/anything.html
