#5948: BridgeDB should respond with the same address:port to each request

----------------------+-----------------------------------------------------
When a Bridge has multiple listening addresses/ports, a valid bridge line
is selected and returned to the client. No effort is made to make sure
that the same address:port is returned for each request. This is a design
flaw, as a single client could expose all listening addresses and ports of
a given bridge.
BridgeDB should respond with the same address:port per bridge for repeat
requests.
This can be implemented in a pretty straightforward way, by mapping the
requesting {ip, email} to one of the address lines and one valid port.
