Change AF_INET6 to 28

Mono incorrectly assigns AF_INET6 for FreeBSD since FreeBSD uses the MacOsNetworkInterfaceAPI.  AF_INET6 is 30 on MacOS but 28 on FreeBSD.  This allows mono to connect to IPv6 only hostnames:

You send two seemingly identical PR's. Was it intended or went something wrong?

I mean, as a port diff.  It's not upstreamable as is, which means it will be a continued maintenance burden over time.  Ideally, FreeBSD has a related but independent ABI definition from OSX upstream.

Upstream (independent?) github issue: https://github.com/mono/mono/issues/13400

Proposed fix that doesn't just hardcode the Mac AF incorrectly: https://github.com/mono/mono/pull/14619

Upstream issue fixed in master (same PR URL).
