Fix a consensus-extension bug found by outofwords

Browse Source 
When the bandwidth-weights branch added the "directory-footer"
token, and began parsing the directory footer at the first
occurrence of "directory-footer", it made it possible to fool the
parsing algorithm into accepting unsigned data at the end of a
consensus or vote.  This patch fixes that bug by treating the footer
as starting with the first "directory-footer" or the first
"directory-signature", whichever comes first.

This should more evenly distribute the network load across these
different types of nodes, and give us the flexibility to globally
alter our node selection algorithms in the future.
alter our node selection algorithms in the future. Extra thanks
to "outofwords" for finding some nasty security bugs in the
first implementation of this.

- Always perform router selections using weighted node bandwidth,
