Tor + IP Hybrid Mode Support for Lightning nodes

Faster Connections for Tor + Clearnet Nodes
With a new update to lnd, it is now possible for nodes to enable a hybrid connection mode that allows both Tor and clearnet connections.
This feature will be in 0.14, and I'm currently testing it myself.

You can now connect to my node via IPv6 as well:

That's cool! 💪
We had trouble with clearnet nodes trying to connect to tor nodes. The Tor nodes were instructed to open a peer connection towards the clearnet nodes, but it's an extra complication. Hopefully this will resolve this issue.

Hmm not sure how I feel about this. That reduces censorship resistance a lot. We should fix Tor instead.

Will my clearnet channel to a hybrid node (which uses DDNS) still function after their IP changes?
