src/java.base/share/classes/java/net/InetAddress.java line 825:

Both `getHostName` and `getCanonicalHostName` talk about `fully qualified 
domain name`, and how the system-wide resolver  is used to determine it. But 
[InetAddressResolver.lookupByAddress](https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/20/docs/api/java.base/java/net/spi/InetAddressResolver.html#lookupByAddress(byte%5B%5D))
 talks about host name, maybe it should be updated to use FQDN term?

`name` is missing here: `fully qualified domain` -> `fully qualified domain 
name`
