 When a relay is configured as a bridge, a user reports this can lead to
 direct connections being made to the relay/bridge, even when a pluggable
 transport is configured. We have been unable to confirm this.

 We should check directory_initiate_command_rend (the linked connection
 case), and connection_or_connect to make sure it is not possible for a
 connection to go directly to a configured bridge when a transport is set
 up.
