Comment:

 Please see my branch feature17327-v2 on
 https://github.com/teor2345/tor.git

 It contains:
 * 616cfb72bf: a rebased 043874ee2e from nickm/bug6027_rebased
   * Add a new ipv6=address:orport flag to DirAuthority and FallbackDir
   * tor.1.txt required a manual merge to update to the latest man page
 layout
 * a53ebf3a9b: Authorities on IPv6: minor fixes and unit tests
 * 9dd5ef2480: Add IPv6 addresses & orports to the default directory
 authorities
 * 61a1ead790: Document IPv4 and IPv6 DirPorts
   * Tor assumes that the IPv4 dirport is also available on the relay's
 IPv6 address. (Or, at least, it will when I'm done.)

 The unit tests check that:
 * IPv6 and non-IPv6 authorities and fallbacks work
 * the default authorities and fallbacks load correctly

 These changes are compatible with the latest code in #15775 -
 feature15775-fallback-v9.
 When this code is run on the list of fallback directories attached to
 #15775, they all parse correctly.

 Please note that Tor doesn't use these new IPv6 addresses and ports yet.
 (#17281 will modify Tor clients to use these new IPv6 addresses to
 bootstrap.)
