 The ReachableAddresses filter should only apply when picking a first node.
 But in 268608c in #17840 , it began to apply to the whole path.

 This is bad for path selection, in proportion to the restrictiveness of
 your ReachableAddresses filter. It's probably not a hard break, but it's
 important to fix.

 Teor found this issue and wrote a patch for it.  It should go into an 028
 release.
