Comment (by andrea):

 This mostly looks okay to me; some comments:

  * Yeah, that XXXX in connection_ap_handshake_socks_got_resolve_cell()
  * Iterating over the list in that function, too - we always end up using
 the *last* address of the preferred address type, where most things have
 round-robin or random behavior when they get multiple answers for a DNS
 query.  Are we sure that's what we want?
