It was made to convert Maxmind's "mmdb" files into the older format
that we used. But now thanks to IPFire Location, we don't have to
touch Maxmind formats any more. (See ticket #40224.)
When reloading a service, we can re-register a service and thus end up again
in the metrics store initialization code path which is fine. No need to BUG()
anymore.

Use find_str_at_start_of_line(), not strstr() here: we don't want
to match "MemTotal: " if it appears in the middle of a line.
Fixes#40315; bugfix on 0.2.5.4-alpha.
The directory_fetches_from_authorities() is used to know if a client or relay
should fetch data from an authority early in the boot process.
We had a condition in that function that made a relay trigger that fetch if it
didn't know its address (so we can learn it). However, when this is called,
the address discovery has not been done yet so it would always return true for
a relay.
Furthermore, it would always trigger a log notice that the IPv4 couldn't be
found which was inevitable because the address discovery process has not been
done yet (done when building our first descriptor).
It is also important to point out that starting in 0.4.5.1-alpha, asking an
authority for an address is done during address discovery time using a one-hop
circuit thus independent from the relay deciding to fetch or not documents
from an authority.
Small fix also is to reverse the "IPv(4|6)Only" flag in the notice so that if
we can't find IPv6 it would output to use IPv4Only.

Fix a bug introduced in 94b56eaa75 which
overwrite the connection message line.
Furthermore, improve how we generate that line by using a smartlist and change
the format so it is clearer of what is being rejected/detected and, if
applicable, which option is disabled thus yielding no stats.

No behavior change except for logging. This is so the connection related
statistics are in the right object.

This is a new detection type which is that a relay can now control the rate of
client connections from a single address.
The mechanism is pretty simple, if the rate/burst is reached, the address is
marked for a period of time and any connection from that address is denied.
