proposal 260, completes ticket 17178. Patch by teor and asn.
o Major features (resource management):
- Tor can now notice it is about to run out
of sockets, and preemptively close connections of lower
priority. (This feature is off by default for now, since the
current prioritizing method is yet not mature enough. You can
enable it by setting "DisableOOSCheck 0", but watch out: it might close
some sockets you would rather have it keep.) Closes ticket 18640.

- Clients now require hidden services to include the TAP keys for
their intro points in the hidden service descriptor. This prevents
an inadvertent upgrade to ntor, which a malicious hidden service
could use to distinguish clients by consensus version. Fixes bug

o Minor features (security, TLS):
- Servers no longer support clients that without AES
ciphersuites. (3DES is no longer considered an acceptable cipher.)
We believe that no such Tor clients currently exist, since Tor has
required OpenSSL 0.9.7 or later since 2009. Closes ticket 19998.

- Add new flags to the *Port options to finer control over which

the synthetic

- The unit tests now log all warning messages with the "BUG" flag.
Previously, they only logged errors by default. This change will
help us make our testing code more correct, and make sure that we
only hit this code when we mean to. In the meantime, however, there
will be more warnings in the unit test logs than before. This is preparatory work for
