extract short IPv4 address parser

* future versions won't accept short IPv4 addresses in FromStr
* provide the IPv4 short parser as explicit function; the provided
  functions interpret short addresses as (non-host) networks, but
  a wrapper function could easily undo this.
  I.e currently "127" parses as 127.0.0.0/32, but
  parse_short_ipv4_address_as_cidr will return 127.0.0.0/8.
