 Yes.

 >  2. Would it be okay to use `node_has_ipv6_addr()` or
 `node_has_ipv6_orport()` along with checking for
 `!ap_conn->entry_cfg.ipv4_traffic` to see if a node has IPv6 support? If
 so, would `node_has_ipv6_addr()` suffice or would I need
 `node_has_ipv6_orport()`?

 No, these functions check for an IPv6 ORPort. You need to check for an
 IPv6 exit policy that allows exiting to the port in the request.

 When building a circuit, use exit_policy_is_general_exit(), but add a
 "sa_family_t family" argument to it for IPv6.
 It should look a bit like policy_is_reject_star().

 When attaching a stream, use compare_tor_addr_to_node_policy() with a NULL
 address for a domain, or the IPv6 address.
