Avoid running the IPv6 regex on IPv4:port in normalizeIp

normalizeIp() called the version-less IPValidator.isIP(ip) first, which runs
the (expensive) IPv6 regex on every value that is not a bare IPv4 — including
IPv4:port forms that proxies routinely send in X-Forwarded-For / the peer
address. Since this runs in the per-request context constructor, it added
noticeable CPU on proxied traffic.

Reorder normalizeIp to do the cheap structural checks first:
- bracketed IPv6 ([ipv6] / [ipv6]:port) handled up front,
- single-colon IPv4:port resolved via isIP(host, "4") (IPv4 regex only),
- only then fall back to the version-less isIP for bare IPv4/IPv6.

Behavior is unchanged (the existing ProxyForwardedParserTest suite passes);
this only removes a redundant IPv6 regex evaluation on IPv4:port values.

Verified with a JFR A/B on the zen-demo-java app under load (ip:port XFF):
IP-parsing CPU share drops back from ~1.45% to ~0.9% and total agent CPU from
4.90% to 4.61% (baseline before the regression was 4.53%). Microbenchmark:
IPv4:port getIpFromRequest 722ns -> 159ns.
