New description:
We need to regenerate the fallback directory mirror list in 0.2.9 in case
any of the 0.2.8 fallbacks have changed details or gone down.
This should not require another opt-in mailout, as we had ~70 additional
fallbacks in 0.2.8 that were suitable but not selected.
We should also:
* restore the 120 day stability period and 99% uptime requirement that
were reduced in 0.2.8 due to #18050
* check the bandwdith range in the script's generated C comments
* check the IP version, netblock, port, and Exit flag proportions in the
script's stderr output
Over the longer term, we could:
* reconsider whether to allow 2 fallbacks per operator (contact, family),
while keeping 1 per IP
* decide whether to change to an opt-out system, where we includes
fallbacks unless operators specifically opt-out
