Fix parsing of hostnames to allow ssh aliases defined in ssh configs) (#418)
* Fix parsing of hostnames to allow ssh aliases defined in ssh configs)

* nicer formatting, pep8 applied

* Properly parse IPv6 addresses with port specification

* Now also handles hostnames with port specified and IPv6 addresses without port  properly

* Updated parameter description for the remotehost specification

* Make the urlparse import backwards compatible to python2

sshuttle: where transparent proxy meets VPN meets ssh
=====================================================

As far as I know, sshuttle is the only program that solves the following
common case:

- Your client machine (or router) is Linux, FreeBSD, or MacOS.

- You have access to a remote network via ssh.

- You don't necessarily have admin access on the remote network.

- The remote network has no VPN, or only stupid/complex VPN
  protocols (IPsec, PPTP, etc). Or maybe you *are* the
  admin and you just got frustrated with the awful state of
  VPN tools.

- You don't want to create an ssh port forward for every
  single host/port on the remote network.

- You hate openssh's port forwarding because it's randomly
  slow and/or stupid.

- You can't use openssh's PermitTunnel feature because
  it's disabled by default on openssh servers; plus it does
  TCP-over-TCP, which has `terrible performance`_.
