The find_my_address() function now prioritize the local interface over the
local hostname when guessing the IP address.
See proposal 312, section 3.2.1, general case:
https://gitweb.torproject.org/torspec.git/tree/proposals/312-relay-auto-ipv6-addr.txt#n359
The entire unit tests had to be refactored to make this possible. Instead of
hot patching it, it has been rewritten to cover all possible cases and the
test interface has been changed to accomodate both IPv4 and IPv6 in order for
them to be tested identically.
Closes#33238

Authorities currently add themselves to the trusted dir servers list,
but if they have an IPv6 ORPort, they leave it out.
This commit makes authorities add their own IPv6 ORPort to the trusted
dir servers list.
Closes ticket 32822.
This is not actually a bug! It can happen for a bunch of reasons,
which all boil down to "trying to add an extrainfo for which we no
longer have the corresponding routerinfo".
Fixes#16016; bugfix on 0.2.6.3-alpha.
Previously we had two chains of logic for reachability tests: one
for launching them, and one for telling the user that we had
launched them. Now, we simply have the launch code inform the user:
this way, we can't get out of sync.
Closes ticket 34137.
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.
