Comment (by teor):

 Replying to [comment:10 nickm]:
 > Code looks good to me.  If I understand correctly, this would mean that
 clients *know* ipv6 addresses for fallbacks and authorities ... but not
 that they'd actually be able to use them yet. Am I right or missing
 something?

 Yes, the directory code only considers IPv4 addresses at the moment.
 I'm working on making it consider IPv6 addresses in #17840.

 But `feature17327-v4` can merge in the interim, as any features that
 relate to authorities/fallbacks on IPv6 depend on the ipv6 fields this
 patch provides.
