Is there a difference between the two versions with regard to Dual Stack and is there something we need to include in v1.12.2 to make Dual Stack work and give us an IPv4 address as well as an IPv6 address?

I don't have any clear commit ids you could cherry-pick. The only
suggestion I can give at this point is to please forget about 1.12.2.
It's not even the last stable update in 1.12.x series. A lot of things
have been fixed since then :/

Same for 1.16.2 actually, multiple updates in the 1.16 branch happened
with lots of different fixes. And we've had 2 additional major stable
releases since then: 1.18 (along with multiple updates in that series)
and 1.20.0 just last week.
