Try additional host addresses for Cypress to successfully connect to Firefox

[cgraham-rs]

What would you like?

As documented in #23897 Cypress cannot currently connect to Firefox 105. Mozilla has proposed changes to enable Cypress to successfully connect to the right host and port.

Per Mozilla:

Henrik Skupin: Cypress should not only try on 127.0.0.1 but also on [::1] or even localhost if no connection is possible on IPv4 with BiDi

Per Mozilla:

Henrik Skupin: Over on bug 1792875 I'm working on a patch to store the WebSocket connection details in the Firefox user profile as WebDriverBiDi.json. Maybe this could be a way for Cypress to read the host and port and connect to the right address.
