IPv6 Multicast implementation to support discovery of peers within the same network (Site-local).
Loopback is enabled, which means that Multicast packets sent will be looped back and received by any local listeners. This allows to connect local processes with each other.

Using the separate Multicast port, it allows sending unsolicited announcements without knowing the target's public key. Instead, a hard-coded key is used.

The Multicast listener opens port 12912 with SO_REUSEADDR to allow multiple processes receive the incoming Multicast packets.
[1] mentions "If two sockets are bound to the same interface and port and are members of the same multicast group, data will be delivered to both sockets, rather than an arbitrarily chosen one."
