Do not set host IP on ports when 0.0.0.0 requested
Docker and CNI have very different ideas of what 0.0.0.0 means. Docker takes it to be 0.0.0.0/0 - that is, bind to every IPv4 address on the host. CNI (and, thus, root Podman) take it to mean the literal IP 0.0.0.0. Instead, CNI interprets the empty string ("") as "bind to all IPs". We could ask CNI to change, but given this is established behavior, that's unlikely. Instead, let's just catch 0.0.0.0 and turn it into "" when we parse ports.
