 Requiring the input to have bridge fingerprints would help to partially
 fix issues like https://github.com/TheTorProject/ooni-pipeline/issues/17,
 and it would help to solve the problem where people doing data
 visualisation on the bridge_reachability report data are ''forced'' to
 display data for a bridge based on its IP:port (because no fingerprint,
 and thus no hashed fingerprint, is available). For example, this is
 currently the case for some of the bridges on
 https://beta.chokepointproject.net/measurements/tor-bridge-
 reachability#Bridge_explorer.

 In fact, perhaps the sanitised reports should ''only'' contain the hashed
 fingerprint, neither the fingerprints nor the addresses? (Following the
 principle of avoiding handing others a loaded gun with the safety off.)
 (Although perhaps this should be another ticket.)
