    Prop 311: Clarify prop 306 references
    
    Improve the explanations of some of the references to proposal 306:
    Client Auto IPv6 Connection. And add a section that specifically
    mentions modifying that proposal.
    
    Part of 24404.

    If relays try both the IPv4 and IPv6 ORPorts, then the circuit would
    succeed. For example, relays could try the alternative port after a 250ms
