This pull request adds documentation for IPv4-only homeservers that fail on IPv6-lookup, and do not correctly fall back to SRV records. This PR adds workarounds such that SRV fallback works correctly on IPv4-only homeservers. One thing that might need to change is where line breaks happen, but that is quite easy to change later on
