#23347: Switching from direct connection to a pluggable transport is not working
anymore with tor on master

------------------------------+--------------------------------
Trying to switch from a direct connection to using a bridge is not working
anymore with tor on `master` (found while using commit
f2f1cab2b3c6a56f93862c424663f083b79c7bc3) on my Linux box.
Steps to reproduce:
1) Take a recent Tor Browser (e.g. an alpha version)
2) Make sure you replace `tor` shipped in your Tor Browser instance with
one compiled from a recent master commit
3) Start Tor Browser and choose direct connection
4) Shut Tor Browser down after you got greeted with the `about:tor` page
5) Restart Tor Browser and press the "Open Settings" button before the
bootstrapping is finished
6) Select e.g. the recommended `obfs4` default bridge option
7) The start-up stalls (I quit Tor Browser after 5 minutes waiting)
The first bad commit is c21cfd28f43a969229ede02e20c6b554c1b88aae which
fixed #17750. Without that one Tor Browser resumes bootstrapping after a
couple of seconds and is using an `obfs4` bridge.
