o Minor features (client, entry guards):

guards. Resolves ticket 23670.
- Improve log messages when missing descriptors for primary guards.
Resolves ticket 23670.
o Minor features (geoip):
- Update geoip and geoip6 to the October 4 2017 Maxmind GeoLite2
Country database.
o Minor bugfixes (bridge):
- Overwrite the bridge address earlier in the process of directly
retrieving its descriptor, to make sure we reach it on the
configured address. Fixes bug 20532; bugfix on 0.2.0.10-alpha.

scripts do. Fixes bug 23739; bugfix on 0.2.9.1-alpha.
o Minor bugfixes (entry guards):
- Tor now updates its guard state when it reads a consensus
regardless of whether it's missing descriptors. That makes tor use
its primary guards to fetch descriptors in some edge cases where
it would have used fallback directories in the past. Fixes bug
it would previously have used fallback directories. Fixes bug
23862; bugfix on 0.3.0.1-alpha.
o Minor bugfixes (hidden service client):
- When getting multiple SOCKS request for the same .onion address,
don't trigger multiple descriptor fetches.
- When the descriptor fetch fails with an internal error, no more
HSDir to query or we aren't allowed to fetch
(FetchHidServDescriptors 0), close all pending SOCKS request for
that .onion. Fixes bug 23653; bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha.
o Minor bugfixes (hidden service v2):
- When reloading tor (HUP) configured with hidden service(s), some
information weren't copy to the new service object. One problem
with this was that tor would wait at least the RendPostPeriod time
before uploading the descriptor if the reload happened before the
descriptor needed to be published. Fixes bug 23790; bugfix
on 0.2.1.9-alpha.
- When handling multiple SOCKS request for the same .onion address,
only fetch the service descriptor once.
- When a descriptor fetch fails with a non-recoverable error, close
all pending SOCKS requests for that .onion. Fixes bug 23653;
bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha.
o Minor bugfixes (hidden service):
- Always make sure the hidden service generate the public key file
if it is missing. Prior to this, if the public key was deleted
from disk, it wouldn't get recreated. Fixes bug 23748; bugfix on
0.3.2.2-alpha. Patch from "cathugger".

- Make sure that we have a usable ed25519 key when the intro point
relay does support ed25519 link authentication. We do check for an
empty key when the relay does not support it so this makes it nice
and symmetric. Fixes bug 24002; bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha.

o Minor bugfixes (memory safety):
- Clear the address when node_get_prim_orport() returns early. Fixes
bug 23874; bugfix on 0.2.8.2-alpha.
o Minor bugfixes (hidden service, v2):
- When reloading a configured with hidden service(s), copy all
information from the old service object. Previously, some data was
omitted, causing delays in descriptor upload, and other bugs.
