Parameterize FRAC_USABLE_NEEDED for fraction of circuits
Instead of hardcoding the minimum fraction of possible paths to 0.6, we take it from the user, and failing that from the consensus, and failing that we fall back to 0.6.

Tor clients don't build circuits for user traffic until they know

enough of the possible paths through the network. If this option

that fraction of possible paths. Note that setting this option too low
|

can make your Tor client less anonymous, and setting it too high can

prevent your Tor client from bootstrapping. If this option is negative,

Tor will use a default value chosen by the directory
