Does this matter?)

purpose_needs_anonymity() to tell the "fetch from source" case from "fetch
from bridge authority, that's better than running into trouble down the
road if fetch_bridge_descriptors() does something foolish.
I agree, the challenge will be to pass this flag down to where it's used
(or derive it from the dir_connection_t / function arguments). Actually,
it should be pretty easy - just check if the bridge is a configured
bridge, and if it is, allow us to fetch bridge server descriptors from it.
