Comment:

 Quick question on this. Are we sure this is not Tor Browser sending a
 SOCKS5 request with the type "fqdn" used with an IPv6 address?

 That `string_is_valid_hostname()` check is done when we get an `atyp =
 0x03` in the SOCKS5 request which means tor should expect a FQDN thus
 returning the error here is fine. The IPv6 address is handled before.

 Why is TB sending a fqdn request at all with this address:
 https://[2a00:1450:401b:800::200e]/ ?
