We can then get all the ipv4 and ipv6 addresses, and do not have to
use the deprecated Formatter.formatIpAddress.
Returns something like:
```
$ termux-wifi-connectioninfo
{
"ip": "fe80::7cf7:74ff:fe65:52be",
"ip": "192.168.1.224",
"ip": "fd6e:e697:d22e:0:7cf7:74ff:fe65:52be",
"ip": "fd6e:e697:d22e:0:d536:328f:b0f:1a32",
"bssid": "02:00:00:00:00:00",
"frequency_mhz": 2452,
"link_speed_mbps": 78,
"mac_address": "02:00:00:00:00:00",
"network_id": -1,
"rssi": -57,
"ssid": "<unknown ssid>",
"ssid_hidden": false,
"supplicant_state": "COMPLETED"
}
```
Getting the gateway address can be useful. One use-case is for easily ssh'ing into a device providing a hotspot, in which case one should ssh to the gateway ip.

Through connectivity manager we can get both ipv4 and ipv6 addresses, and can drop the use of the deprecated
Formatter.formatIpAddress().With both changes we get something like:
Going from just one ip field to several will likely break some user scripts though. Maybe we should keep printing the IPV4 address as
"ip" : ...and then all of them as"ip 1" : ...,"ip 2" : ...and so on?
