Comment (by dgoulet):

 About (1), the DoS subsystem added a way to identify if the address is
 "probably" a relay or not in a very fast way with a bloom filter. Relay
 address are added when a `node_t` is added to the routerlist which for a
 dirauth contains all relays that have uploaded their descriptors.

 Code is in `./src/core/or/address_set.h` which is very convenient and
 already in use.

 We could implement (1) easily using this.
