#27949: Wrong circuit & padlock displayed when using an onion service through Alt-
Svc discovery

--------------------+------------------------------------------
TBB version 8.5a2, Linux/amd64
When connecting to a website that offers an onion service through the Alt-
Svc header, the circuit (and padlock icon) aren't updated when the browser
reconnects through the onion service.
I confirmed the bug occurs by connecting to an endpoint, on an Alt-Svc-
enabled service, that returns “tor” when going over an exit node and
“onion” when going over the onion service:
https://www.facebook.com/si/proxy
(This is a facebook-internal endpoint, and I will replace the suggested
reproduction endpoint once I setup an Alt-Svc-enabled website and
reproduce the issue on it.)
