o Removed features (directory authorities):
- Directory authorities no longer advertise or support consensus
methods 1 through 12 inclusive. These consensus methods were
obsolete and/or insecure: maintaining the ability to support them
served no good purpose. Implements part of proposal 215;
closes ticket 10163.
o Minor features (directory authorities)
- If a directory authority can't find a best consensus method in the
votes that it holds, it now falls back to its favorite consensus
method. Previously, it fell back to method 1. Neither of these is
likely to get enough signatures, but "fall back to favorite"
doesn't require us to maintain support an obsolete consensus
method. Implements another part of proposal 215.
