#17963: Bridge clients should get directory documents via IPv6

------------------------+--------------------------------
In directory_get_from_dirserver, a bridge client determines the bridge's
address using node_get_addr, which only returns IPv4 addresses.
After #17840 is merged, the bridge client should:
* respect ClientUseIPv4/6
* choose a random directory guard that has an available address family
(this should just work in choose_random_dirguard after #17840, but we need
to check this)
* choose an address from that dirguard from an available address family
And maybe:
* respect ClientPreferIPv6OR/DirPort
* set ClientPreferIPv6OR/DirPort to 1 by default?
* this will be tricky because these options already have a default
value, and we don't want to write it out
