When requesting extrainfo descriptors from a trusted directory
server, check whether it is an authority or a fallback directory
which supports extrainfo descriptors.
Fixes bug 18489; bugfix on 90f6071d8d in tor-0.2.4.7-alpha.

Make it clearer that they are about outgoing connection attempts.
Specify the options involved where they were missing from one log
message.
Clarify a comment.
Downgrade logs and backtraces about IP versions to
info-level. Only log backtraces once each time tor runs.

tor-0.2.8.1-alpha.
Reported by "sysrqb" and "Christian", patch by "teor".
Bridge clients ignore ClientUseIPv6, acting as if it is always 1.
This preserves existing behaviour.
Make ClientPreferIPv6OR/DirPort auto by default:
* Bridge clients prefer IPv6 by default.
* Other clients prefer IPv4 by default.
This preserves existing behaviour.
Applies the 6c443e987d fix to router_pick_directory_server_impl.
6c443e987d applied to directory servers chosen from the consensus,
and was:
"Tweak the 9969 fix a little
If we have busy nodes and excluded nodes, then don't retry with the
excluded ones enabled. Instead, wait for the busy ones to be nonbusy."
"Tor has included a feature to fetch the initial consensus from nodes
other than the authorities for a while now. We just haven't shipped a
list of alternate locations for clients to go to yet.
Reasons why we might want to ship tor with a list of additional places
where clients can find the consensus is that it makes authority
reachability and BW less important.
We want them to have been around and using their current key, address,
and port for a while now (120 days), and have been running, a guard,
and a v2 directory mirror for most of that time."
Features:
* whitelist and blacklist for an opt-in/opt-out trial.
* excludes BadExits, tor versions that aren't recommended, and low
consensus weight directory mirrors.
* reduces the weighting of Exits to avoid overloading them.
* places limits on the weight of any one fallback.
* includes an IPv6 address and orport for each FallbackDir, as
implemented in #17327. (Tor won't bootstrap using IPv6 fallbacks
until #17840 is merged.)
* generated output includes timestamps & Onionoo URL for traceability.
* unit test ensures that we successfully load all included default
fallback directories.
Closes ticket #15775. Patch by "teor".

router_digest_is_fallback_dir returns 1 if the digest is in the
currently loaded list of fallback directories, and 0 otherwise.
This function is for future use.
Prop210: Add attempt-based connection schedules
Existing tor schedules increment the schedule position on failure,
then retry the connection after the scheduled time.
To make multiple simultaneous connections, we need to increment the
schedule position when making each attempt, then retry a (potentially
simultaneous) connection after the scheduled time.
(Also change find_dl_schedule_and_len to find_dl_schedule, as it no
longer takes or returns len.)
Prop210: Add multiple simultaneous consensus downloads for clients
Make connections on TestingClientBootstrapConsensus*DownloadSchedule,
incrementing the schedule each time the client attempts to connect.
Check if the number of downloads is less than
TestingClientBootstrapConsensusMaxInProgressTries before trying any
more connections.
Some functions that use digest maps did not mention that the digests are
expected to have DIGEST_LEN bytes. This lead to buffer over-reads in the
past.
Mark fallback directory mirrors as "too busy" when they return
a 503 response. Previously, the code just marked authorities as busy.
Unless clients set their own fallback directories, they will never see
this bug. (There are no default fallbacks yet.)
Fixes bug 17572; bugfix on 5c51b3f1f0 released in 0.2.4.7-alpha.
Patch by "teor".
Instead of having it call update_all_descriptor_downloads and
update_networkstatus_downloads directly, we can have it cause them to
get rescheduled and called from run_scheduled_events.
Closes ticket 16789.
