#17066: Avoid assuming relays have a single IPv4/IPv6 address

-------------------------------+------------------------------------
Many areas of the Tor codebase assume that a relay has a single IPv4
address, or perhaps an IPv4 and an IPv6 address. Multi-homed relays may
have many such addresses.
Therefore, some callers of get_interface_address[6] may be able to use the
list of addresses from the get_interface_address6_list function introduced
in #17027.
We should review all calls to get_interface_address and
get_interface_address6 to see if they would benefit from using a list
instead.
