This change makes it impossible to set your own IP address as the exit node for this system.
Fixes#1489

Tor has a location-hidden service feature that enables users to host services
from inside the Tor network. Each of these gets a unique DNS name that ends with
.onion. As it stands now, if a misbehaving application somehow manages to make
a .onion DNS request to our DNS server, we will forward that to the DNS server,
which could leak that to malicious third parties. See the recent bug Brave had
with this[1] for more context.
RFC 7686 suggests that name resolution APIs and libraries MUST respond with
NXDOMAIN unless they can actually handle Tor lookups. We can't handle .onion
lookups, so we reject them.
