* Added in Tor 0.3.5.1-alpha.
*
* Example return values include "tor 0.3.5.1-alpha" when linked directly
* against tor, and "libtorrunner 0.3.5.1-alpha" when linked against
* libtorrunner while it is invoking an arbitrary version of Tor. HOWEVER,
* the user MUST NOT depend on any particular format or contents of this
* string: there may be other things that implement Tor in the future.
