tor: short circuit host lookup if connecting to IP
With this commit we avoid calling LookupHost if we already have an IPv4
or IPv6 address, as we can return that directly.
This avoids asking Tor to resolve an IPv6 address, which it cannot do.

tor

The tor package contains utility functions that allow for interacting with the Tor daemon. So far, supported functions include:

  • Routing all traffic over Tor's exposed SOCKS5 proxy.
  • Routing DNS queries over Tor (A, AAAA, SRV).
  • Limited Tor Control functionality (synchronous messages only). So far, this includes:
    • Support for SAFECOOKIE, HASHEDPASSWORD, and NULL authentication methods.
    • Creating v2 and v3 onion services.

In the future, the Tor Control functionality will be extended to support v3 onion services, asynchronous messages, etc.
