add upload_port vid/pid for adafruit boards (espressif#9779)

fix(release): Update merge_package.py (espressif#9694)

Use packaging.version instead of the deprecated distutils.version

fix: remove "programmer.default" from Nano ESP32 (espressif#9665)

Setting programmer.default has unfortunately multiple effects:
- sets the tick by default in the Tool menu in the IDE (which was the
  expected behavior),
- forces the CLI to use the specified programmer every time an upload is
  attempted (which is confusing users).

For this reason, it is better to remove the "programmer.default" setting
from the board definition and let the user choose the programmer in the
IDE menus, as it was before.

fix(dns): Fix IPv6-only network, by checking IPv6 first if you have p…

…ublic address (espressif#9443)

Work around because AF_UNSPEC does not check available addresses when
determining result.

If you have a global scope IPv6 address, then first check for IPv6 DNS result;
if you don't have an IPv6, or there is no IPv6 result, then check IPv4.

This allows IPv6-only networks to connect to dual-stack destinations, as they
will get the IPv6 address (rather than the unusable IPv4).

It also means a dual-stack host to a dual-stack destination will preference
IPv6.

There is no effect if you are on an IPv4-only network, or it is an IPv4-only
destination.
