 Prop 186 says

   An authority shouldn't list a node as Running unless every
   or-address line it advertises looks like it will work.

 Authorities don't consider a potential IPv6 OR port when deciding
 whether a relay is running or not.

 I suggest we fix that but have auths not on IPv6
 (AuthDirHasIPv6Connectivity == 0) not take IPv6 reachability into
 account.
