#3767: Allow Tor to listen on a specific interface for ORPort

-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
I have a use case where my Tor has a dynamic IP on one interface and only
one interface. The device in question has three interfaces and two of them
should will not offer an ORPort.
It is possible to offer specific Tor services by interface only if the
interface has a static ip. This means that I have to hard code ip
addresses into my torrc and this doesn't scale very well. It would be nice
to listen on whatever ip address is bound to a given interface. Here is an
example stanza:
{{{
ORPort eth0:auto by-interface
}}}
It would also be nice if it was possible to do this for other things like
the TransPort, etc.
Any thoughts on this would be most appreciated.
