server 78 seems to report an incorrect location (maybe anycasted?)

Description

librespeed reports impossible server locations. Here is the output of automated once-per-night librespeed runs:

Virginia, United States, OVH	9/2/2023 3:01 AM	92.45	42.74	1.62	18
Virginia, United States, OVH	9/1/2023 3:01 AM	92.49	42.75	0.38	17
Frankfurt, Germany (Clouvider)	8/31/2023 3:01 AM	96.56	42.52	0.25	17.64
Frankfurt, Germany (Clouvider)	8/30/2023 7:21 PM	92.96	42.61	0.14	19

Note how the upper two pretend to be located in Virgina over the atlantic ocean, since I am located in the middle of Germany, getting an RTT of 18ms to Virginia in the US is not believable… The distance is ~ 6.590 Km, so with 10006590000/300000000 = 22 ms one way delay or 44ms RTT , assuming we could get a direct evacuated path between both locations in actual fiber more like 10006590000/(0.67*300000000) = 33 ms OWD or 66ms RTT.

Server

This is using automatically selected servers the client auto selects.

Client

This is under turris OS 6 (a derivative of OpenWrt 21).

Server 78's name implies a location in the US, but its RTT is not consistent with that claim.

Expected behaviour

The Virgina server should have reported a "Ping" in line with a cross-atlantic network path, so likely >> 100ms, as can be seen for the Atlanta and New York servers:

Sorry, but I think this issue doesn't belong in this repository. Here is the source of the self-hosted code anyone can use as a server.
