> 	to byte[][].

This patch is to make test/regression/InetSocketAddressTest.java pass.

The native method getHostByName in libraries/clib/net/InetAddressImpl.c
returns byte[][],  but the returned array looks like Object[].
When the array is cached by java.net.ResolverCache, it is stored as
an Object[].  And when it is reused,  it can no longer be cast to byte[][].

It would be better if the native method in
libraries/clib/net/InetAddressImpl.c could return byte[][] which is
clearly distinguished from Object[].
