Implement proposal 109: As an authority, never call more than 3 servers per IP Running and Valid. Prefer Running servers to non-running ones; then prefer high-bandwidth to low-bandwidth. Needs testing. svn:r10968

Directory server administrators may label some servers or IPs as
blacklisted, and elect not to include them in their network-status lists.
+ Authorities SHOULD 'disable' any servers in excess of 3 on any single
+ IP. When there are more than 3 to choose from, authorities should first
+ prefer Running to non-Running, and then prefer high-bandwidth to
+ low-bandwidth. To 'disable' a server, the authority *should* advertise
+ it without the Running or Valid flag.
+
Thus, the network-status list includes all non-blacklisted,
non-expired, non-superseded descriptors.
