Description
Fixes firebase/firebase-tools-ui#332
This affects Firebase CLI running on WSL only. It has an undesirable side effect of breaking IPv6 use cases, but this is arguably better than not being able to use it at all from the host. I don't think we have a way to serve both IPv4 and IPv6 from host until microsoft/WSL#4851 is fixed. See microsoft/WSL#4851 (comment) for the root cause of the issue.
Scenarios Tested
Manually tested by crwilcox@ on WSL2. Verified that Firestore Viewer in host can successfully list and edit data in Firestore emulator in subsystem.
Sample Commands
firebase emulators:start
in WSL2.curl http://127.0.0.1:8080/
from host to verify (it fails with connection refused without this patch).
