This improves client anonymity and avoids directory header tampering.
The extra load on the authorities should be offset by the fallback
directories feature.
This also simplifies the fixes to #18809.
After #17840 in 0.2.8.1-alpha, we incorrectly chose an IPv4
address for all DIRIND_ONEHOP directory connections,
even if the routerstatus didn't have an IPv4 address.
This likely affected bridge clients with IPv6 bridges.
Resolves#18921.
The problem is that "q" is always set on the first iteration even
if the question is not a supported question. This set of "q" is
not necessary, and will be handled after exiting the loop if there
if a supported q->type was found.

* SHA-3/SHAKE use little endian for certain things, so byteswap as
needed.
* The code was written under the assumption that unaligned access to
quadwords is allowed, which isn't true particularly on non-Intel.
As well as the existing reports of IPv6 address additions or removals,
the script now warns when keys change but IPv4:ORPort or
IPv6:IPv6ORPort remain the same.
Existing checks for other whitelist detail changes have also
been re-worded and upgraded to warnings.
This makes it easier for changes to be identified so operators can
be contacted to confirm whether the change is stable.
Also add misbehaving relays to updateFallbackDirs.py blacklist,
but leave them commented out in case it's a transient issue,
or it's been resolved by the download check fixes. (These
relays hang stem's downloader. It's unlikely they'll ever help
clients.)
Use IP address, effective family, and contact info to
discover and limit fallbacks to one per operator.
Also analyse netblock, ports, IP version, and Exit flag,
and print the results. Don't exclude any fallbacks from
the list because of netblocks, ports, IP version, or
Exit flag.
But as advertised bandwidth is controlled by relays,
use consensus weight and median weight to bandwidth ratio
to approximate measured bandwidth.
Includes minor comment changes and parameter reordering.
Previously, we would cut the list down to 100 fallbacks,
then check if they could serve a consensus, and comment
them out if they couldn't.
This would leave us with fewer than 100 active fallbacks.
Now, we stop when there are 100 active fallbacks.
Also count fallbacks with identical contact info.
Also fix minor logging issues.
Give each fallback a set weight of 10.0 for client selection.
Fallbacks must have at least 3000 consensus weight.
This is (nominally) 100 times the expected extra load of
20 kilobytes per second (50 GB per month).
Fixes issue #17905.
Improve the download test:
* Allow IPv4 DirPort checks to be turned off.
* Add a timeout to stem's consensus download.
* Actually check for download errors, rather than ignoring them.
* Simplify the timeout and download error checking logic.
Tweak whitelist/blacklist checks to be more robust.
Improve logging, make it warn by default.
Cleanse fallback comments more thoroughly:
* non-printables (yes, ContactInfo can have these)
* // comments (don't rely on newlines to prevent // */ escapes)
This changes simply renames them by removing "Testing" in front of them and
they do not require TestingTorNetwork to be enabled anymore.
Fixes#18481

Yes, we could cast to unsigned char first, but it's probably safest
to just use our own (in test_util), or remove bad-idea features that
we don't use (in readpassphrase.c).
Fixes 18728.
