Nick Mathewson a7aa97298b Remove special authority semantics for AssumeReachable.
AssumeReachable should only be about whether a relay thinks that it
is reachable itself.  But previously, we've had it also turn off
reachability checking of _other_ relays on authorities.
(Technically, reachability tests were still run, but we would ignore
the results.)

With this patch, there is a new AuthDirTestReachability option
(default 1) that controls whether authorities run reachability
tests.

Making this change allows us to have test networks where authorities
set AssumeReachable without disabling their reachability testing
entirely.

Closes ticket #34445.

Nick Mathewson 62e1d983cf Deprecate the "--dump-config non-builtin" option
When it works, "non-builtin" doesn't do anything different from
"short".  (When it doesn't work, it gives an assertion failure.)

Closes ticket #33398.

Nick Mathewson edb023b1e7 Add an AssumeReachableIPv6 autobool option.
This option tells Tor that our IPv6 orport is reachable, and doesn't
need to be checked.

c 284e9459b8 doc: specify C99 coding standards
Make clear that Tor's C code targets C99 standards. This makes it more
explicit what to expect for new code, because guessing from existing
code is not always reliable, especially for code that predates the
change in standard.

David Goulet cd2121a126 client: Revert setting PreferIPv6 on by default
This change broke torsocks that by default is expecting an IPv4 for hostname
resolution because it can't ask tor for a specific IP version with the SOCKS5
extension.

PreferIPv6 made it that sometimes the IPv6 could be returned to torsocks that
was expecting an IPv4.

Torsocks is probably a very unique case because the runtime flow is that it
hijacks DNS resolution (ex: getaddrinfo()), gets an IP and then sends it back
for the connect() to happen.

The libc has DNS resolution functions that allows the caller to request a
specific INET family but torsocks can't tell tor to resolve the hostname only
to an IPv4 or IPv6 and thus by default fallsback to IPv4.

Reverting this change into 0.4.3.x series but we'll keep it in the 0.4.4.x
series in the hope that we add this SOCKS5 extension to tor for DNS resolution
and then change torsocks to use that.

Fixes #33804
