The previous version of this function has the following issues:
* it doesn't choose between IPv4 and IPv6 addresses correctly, and
* it doesn't fall back to a 3-hop path when the address for a direct
  connection is unreachable.
But we can't fix these things in a bugfix release.

Instead, treat IPv6 addresses like any other unrecognised link specifier
and ignore them. If there is no IPv4 address, return NULL.

This supports v3 hidden services on IPv4, dual-stack, and IPv6, and
v3 single onion services on IPv4 only.

Part of 23820, bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha.

History
Tor protects your privacy on the internet by hiding the connection
between your Internet address and the services you use. We believe Tor
is reasonably secure, but please ensure you read the instructions and
configure it properly.

To build Tor from source:
        ./configure && make && make install

To build Tor from a just-cloned git repository:
        sh autogen.sh && ./configure && make && make install
