 Tor already has `DisableNetwork`, an option that prevents network
 connections.

 But when testing #15775 (Fallback Directories), it would be useful to be
 able to disable connections to the authorities only. (Like the attached
 torrc.block_authorities file.) This would help us ensure bootstrap works
 without authorities. `DisableDirectDirAuthConnection`?

 When testing #8374, it could be useful to disable IPv4, so that we can
 ensure bootstrap works with only IPv6. This would be like `ClientUseIPv6`
 and `ClientPreferIPv6ORPort`, but applying strictly to the entire Tor
 process: `DisableIPv6Network`.

 And it might also be useful to disable IPv6, if IPv6 becomes active by
 default: `DisableIPv4Network`.

 This would help us cover the IPv4/IPv6 testing combinations listed at the
 bottom of:
