----------------------+----------------------
 This has many uses, but in particular this will allow us to do #12843. I
 suggest we not bother rewriting large portions of the code to satisfy this
 and simply add another attribute to the Bridge class specifying its
 country. As soon as we have this information we can do more smart things
 with it (and those can be other smarter tickets).

 For simplicity, we can only rely on the the ORPort netblock. This is what
 the BA checks. In the future, when ORPorts are disableable, we'll need to
 rely on the addresses in the transport lines, but that can be dealt with
 later, I think.
