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.
Delete an unnecessary check for non-preferred IP versions.
Allows clients which can't reach any directories of their
preferred IP address version to get directory documents.
Patch on #17840 in 0.2.8.1-alpha.
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.

Decide to advertise begindir support in a similar way to how
we decide to advertise DirPort.
Fix up the associated descriptor-building unit tests.
Resolves#18616, bugfix on 0c8e042c30 in #12538 in 0.2.8.1-alpha.
Apparently somewhere along the line we decided that MIN might be
missing.
But we already defined it (if it was missing) in compat.h, which
everybody includes.
Closes ticket 18889.
When we connect to a hidden service as a client we may need three internal
circuits, one for the descriptor retrieval, introduction, and rendezvous.
Let's try to make sure we have them. Closes#13239.

Unlike tor_assert(), these macros don't abort the process. They're
good for checking conditions we want to warn about, but which don't
warrant a full crash.
This commit also changes the default implementation for
tor_fragile_assert() to tor_assert_nonfatal_unreached_once().
Closes ticket 18613.
When the directory authorities refuse a bad relay's descriptor,
encourage the relay operator to contact us. Many relay operators
won't notice this line in their logs, but it's a win if even a
few learn why we don't like what their relay was doing.
Resolves ticket 18760.
I didn't specify a contact mechanism (e.g. an email address), because
every time we've done that in the past, a few years later we noticed
that the code was pointing people to an obsolete contact address.
This changes simply renames them by removing "Testing" in front of them and
they do not require TestingTorNetwork to be enabled anymore.
Fixes#18481
