Check for IP address change every minute, not 15 minutes
Relays used to check every 10 to 60 seconds, as an accidental side effect of calling directory_fetches_from_authorities() when considering doing a directory fetch. The fix for bug 1992 removes that side effect. At the same time, bridge relays never had the side effect, leading to confused bridge operators who tried crazy tricks to get their bridges to notice IP address changes (see ticket 1913). The new behavior is to reinstate an every-60-seconds check for both public relays and bridge relays, now that the side effect is gone.

answer in some cases. Fixes bugs 1992 (bugfix on 0.2.0.20-rc)
and 2410 (bugfix on 0.1.2.2-alpha).
