Fix If-Modified-Since in rapidly updating Tor networks

Browse Source 
When V3AuthVotingInterval is low, decrease the delay on the
If-Modified-Since header passed to directory servers.
This allows us to obtain consensuses promptly when the consensus
interval is very short.

This assists in bootstrapping a testing Tor network.

Fixes bugs 13718 & 13963.
