Previously, we would reject even rendezvous connections to IPv6
addresses when IPv6Exit was false. But that doesn't make sense; we
don't count that as "exit"ing. I've corrected the logic and tried
to make it a lottle more clear.
Fixes bug 18357; this code has been wrong since 9016d9e829 in
0.2.4.7-alpha.
When deleting unsuitable addresses in get_interface_address6_list(), to
avoid reordering IPv6 interface addresses and keep the order returned by
the OS, use SMARTLIST_DEL_CURRENT_KEEPORDER() instead of
SMARTLIST_DEL_CURRENT().
This issue was reported by René Mayrhofer.

We removed that feature in 0.2.4.2-alpha, but some comments seem to
have lingered.
I didn't add a changes/ file since this is just internal code cleanup.
(like clients do) rather than old-style router descriptors. Now bridges
will blend in with clients in terms of the circuits they build.
Fixes bug 6769; bugfix on 0.2.3.2-alpha.
Clients that use bridges were ignoring their cached microdesc-flavor
consensus files, because they only thought they should use the microdesc
flavor once they had a known-working bridge that could offer microdescs,
and at first boot no bridges are known-working.
This bug caused bridge-using clients to download a new microdesc consensus
on each startup.
Fixes bug 20269; bugfix on 0.2.3.12-alpha.
The client addr is essentially meaningless in this context (yes, it is
possible to explicitly `bind()` AF_LOCAL client side sockets to a path,
but no one does it, and there are better ways to grant that sort of
feature if people want it like using `SO_PASSCRED`).
As before, we check server protocols whenever server_mode(options)
is true and we check client protocols whenever server_mode(options)
is false.
Additionally, we now _also_ check client protocols whenever any
client port is set.
(Technically, we could just remove extend2 cell checking entirely,
since all Tor versions on our network are required to have it, but
let's keep this around as an example of How To Do It.)
(Despite the increased size of the consensus, this should have
approximately zero effect on the compressed consensus size, since
the "proto" line should be completely implied by the "v" line.)
[This is a brute-force method that potentially uses way too much
RAM. Need to rethink this a little. Right now you can DOS an
authority by saying "Foo=1-4294967295".]
