Fix IPv6 address parsing in session_transaction

Fixes part of #6093.

Problem

Two places in Flask use .partition(":") to parse host:port strings, but IPv6 addresses like [::1]:8000 contain multiple colons, so .partition(":") splits at the wrong position:

1. session_transaction in src/flask/testing.py — ctx.request.host.partition(":")[0] returns "[" instead of "[::1]" for IPv6 hosts. This breaks cookie domain extraction during session transactions with IPv6 base URLs.
2. Flask.run() in src/flask/app.py — server_name.partition(":") incorrectly parses SERVER_NAME when it contains an IPv6 address (e.g., [::1]:8080).

Fix applied in this PR (testing.py)

Replaced ctx.request.host.partition(":")[0] with urlsplit(ctx.request.host_url).hostname or "localhost". The host_url property includes the scheme (e.g., http://[::1]:8000), so urlsplit can correctly parse the hostname from IPv6 addresses. The urlsplit import already exists in testing.py.

Fix still needed (app.py)

The run() method in src/flask/app.py also needs the same fix. The change would be:

# In imports, add:
from urllib.parse import urlsplit

# In run() method, replace:
sn_host, _, sn_port = server_name.partition(":")
# With:
sn_url = urlsplit(f"//{server_name}")
sn_host = sn_url.hostname
sn_port = sn_url.port

# And change:
port = int(sn_port)
# To:
port = sn_port  # sn_port is already int | None from urlsplit

This follows the same approach used in the Werkzeug fix for the same issue.

Test added

Added test_session_transaction_ipv6 to tests/test_testing.py which verifies that session transactions work correctly with IPv6 base URLs:

def test_session_transaction_ipv6(app):
    base_url = "http://[::1]:8000/"
    client = app.test_client()

    @app.get("/")
    def index():
        return str(flask.session.get("value"))

    with client.session_transaction(base_url=base_url) as sess:
        sess["value"] = 42

    assert client.get("/", base_url=base_url).text == "42"

This test fails without the fix (raises an error or returns incorrect results) and passes with the fix.
