refactor(iroh-net): remove random choice of direct addr (#2509)

## Description

When we had any direct addresses but not yet a best address we would
randomly try to pick one and send to it on the off chance it worked.
This required to always pick the same direct addr to send to which was
not happening and a bug.

However the scenarios in which this would speed up holepunching were
very unlikely: only really if a single direct addr known to work was
added manually would this improve things.

Simply removing this feature is rather nice:

- The direct connection still happens very quickly in the best-case
  scenario: a single ping-pong roundtrip is all it costs.  No relay
  server or discovery mechanism needed so no functionality change.

- In all other scenarios there is no change.  Connection establishment
  behaves exactly the same as before.

- There are no more confusing connection type changes at startup.
  This would go relay -> mixed (-> mixed a few times more due to the
  bug) -> direct.  Now it just goes relay -> direct which is intuitively
  what people would expect.

The simplest way to test this is by running doctor accept and connect
with direct addrs only and observe the holepunching events emitted.


## Breaking Changes

## Notes & open questions

This is an alternative to #2487.  And my preferred solution.

Fixes #2480.

See #2512 for the flaky test.

test_two_devices_roundtrip_network_change managed to hit a timeout on
cross CI.  Give it some more time.

## Change checklist

- [x] Self-review.
- [x] Documentation updates following the [style
guide](https://rust-lang.github.io/rfcs/1574-more-api-documentation-conventions.html#appendix-a-full-conventions-text),
if relevant.
- [x] Tests if relevant.
- [x] All breaking changes documented.
