clients use optimistic data when reaching hidden services

Allow clients to use optimistic data when connecting to a hidden service,
which should cut out the initial round-trip for client-side programs
including Tor Browser.

(Now that Tor 0.2.2.x is obsolete, all hidden services should support
server-side optimistic data.)

See proposal 181 for details. Implements ticket 13211.
