New description:

 We can rely on Onionoo to tell us when relay addresses change, so we don't
 need to check them.
 But listing addresses is useful when fingerprints change.

 This simplifies maintaining the fallback whitelist, and also simplifies
 the script.

 We will delete the blacklist in #26502.
