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.

Use the new relay_has_address_set() interface when deciding if we need to
fetch directory information from an authority as a relay.
If no IPv4 address is found, we'll proceed with a fetch so we can learn our
address in the HTTP header or NETINFO cell that a trusted authority will send
us back.

This commit moves router_pick_published_address() and the related helper
functions into the new file.
The log_addr_has_changed() function has been made public in router.h so we can
use it in relay_resolve_addr.c.
This is a refactoring as part of Sponsor 55. Only code movement at this
commit.
