Construct a new luci.ip.cidr instance and autodetect the address family. 
Throws an error if the given strings do not represent a valid address or 
if the given optional netmask is of a different family.


<h3>Parameters</h3>
<ul>
	
	<li>
	  address: String containing a valid IPv4 or IPv6 address, optionally 
with prefix size (CIDR notation) or netmask separated by slash.
	</li>
	
	<li>
	  netmask: String containing a valid IPv4 or IPv6 netmask or number 
containing a prefix size in bits (<code>0..32</code> for IPv4, 
<code>0..128</code> for IPv6). Overrides mask embedded in the first argument 
if specified. (optional)
	</li>
	
</ul>


<h3>Usage:</h3>
<pre>addr = luci.ip.new("10.24.0.1/24") 
addr = luci.ip.new("10.24.0.1/255.255.255.0") 
addr = luci.ip.new("10.24.0.1", "255.255.255.0")        -- separate netmask 
addr = luci.ip.new("10.24.0.1/24", 16)                  -- override netmask 
 
addr6 = luci.ip.new("fe80::221:63ff:fe75:aa17/64") 
addr6 = luci.ip.new("fe80::221:63ff:fe75:aa17/ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff::")

addr6 = luci.ip.new("fe80::221:63ff:fe75:aa17/64", 128) -- override netmask</pre>


<h3>Return value:</h3>
A <code>luci.ip.cidr</code> object representing the given 
address/mask range.
