Extend get_voting_interval() so that it's callable by relays.

In the past, only authorities and clients had to use that function because of
the SRV subsystem. However, because of its use in rep_hist_hs_stats_init() it
will now also be used by relays when bootstrapping without a consensus. Make it
do something sensible.

Another approach (instead of using magic values) would be to wait
initialization of HSv3 stats until we get a consensus but that seems messy to
schedule.

Another approach would be to make dirauth_sched_get_configured_interval() also
work for relays (particularly when TestingNetwork is enabled), but that also
seems a good amount of work.
