cf-socket: drop feature check for `IPV6_V6ONLY` on Windows

The macro is present in all supported Windows toolchains.

It's present in mingw-w64 v3+, and in MS SDK 6.0A+ (maybe earlier).

Also:
- restrict this logic to `USE_WINSOCK` (was: `_WIN32`), to exclude
  alternate socket libraries (i.e. lwIP). lwIP supports `IPV6_V6ONLY`
  since its 2.0.0 (2016-11-10) release and it's disabled by default,
  unlike in Winsock.
  Ref: https://github.com/lwip-tcpip/lwip/commit/e65202f8257e55b09e6309b1aa405b5e6a017f0d
- delete interim setter function/dummy macro `set_ipv6_v6only()`.

Follow-up to ca3f6decb927a4c3eb4c10fba09848b626a526d6 #10975

Closes #19769
