wgengine/magicsock: prefer private endpoints to public ones

Switch our best address selection to use a scoring-based approach, where
we boost each address based on whether it's a private IP or IPv6.

For users in cloud environments, this biases endpoint selection towards
using an endpoint that is less likely to cost the user money, and should
be less surprising to users.

This also involves updating the tests to not use private IPv4 addresses;
other than that change, the behaviour should be identical for existing
endpoints.

Updates #8097
