Add a bunch of function documentation; clean up a little code; fix some XXXXs; tag the nonsensical EXTRAINFO_PURPOSE_GENERAL as nonsesnse; note another bit of "do not cache special routers" code to nuke.

users configure that and specify a bridge with an identity
fingerprint, now they will lookup the bridge descriptor at the
default bridge authority via a one-hop tunnel, but once circuits
are established they will switch to a three-hop tunnel for later
connections to the bridge authority.
svn:r11550
Add a line to the state file for each guard to let us know which version added the guard. If the line is absent, assume the guard was added by whatever version of Tor last wrote the state file. Remove guards if the version that added them was using a bad guard selection algorithm. (Previously, we removed guards if the version that wrote the file was using a bad guard selection algorithm, even if the guards themselves were chosen by a good version.)
svn:r11298
When we are loading state info from disk, never believe any date in the future. Doing so can keep us from retrying guards, rotating onion keys, storing bandwidth info, etc. Fixes bug 434, and others. Backport candidate, once it has been tested.
svn:r11166
never choose any guards past it. This way we don't expand our
guard list unless we need to. [Bugfix in 0.1.2.x]
I'm not sure if this will solve all our problems, but it is at least
something.

in the networkstatuses, so we'll mark it unusable when we
load it, and then when we get a new routerinfo for it, we'll
still think it's unusable. fix that.
svn:r10612
- Only listen to responses for "authority" fetches if we're configured
to use Bridges. Otherwise it's safe (and maybe smarter) to silently
discard them like we used to.
- React faster to download networkstatuses after the first bridge
descriptor arrives.
- Don't do dir fetches before we have any bridges, even when our
dirport is open.
svn:r10604
- demand options->Bridges and options->TunnelDirConns if
options->UseBridges is set.
- after directory fetches, accept descriptors that aren't referenced by
our networkstatuses, *if* they're for a configured bridge.
- delay directory fetching until we have at least one bridge descriptor.
- learn how to build a one-hop circuit when we have neither routerinfo
nor routerstatus for our destination.
- teach directory connections how to pick a bridge as the destination
directory when doing non-anonymous fetches.
- tolerate directory commands for which the dir_port is 0.
- remember descriptors when the requested_resource was "authority",
rather than just ignoring them.
- put bridges on our entry_guards list once we have a descriptor for them.
When UseBridges is set, only pick entry guards that are bridges. Else
vice versa.
svn:r10571
It is becoming increasingly clear to me that bridges should
be a special case of entry guards, not a whole separate pile
of nearly identical functions.
svn:r10141
Initial version of circuit-based cell queues. Instead of hammering or_conns with piles of cells, queue cells on their corresponding circuits, and append them to the or_conn as needed. This seems to work so far, but needs a bit more work. This will break the memory-use-limitation patch for begin_dir conns: the solution will be a fun but fiddly.
svn:r9904
Make all LD_BUG log messsages get prefixed with "Bug: ". Remove manually-generated "Bug: "s from log-messages. (Apparently, we remembered to add them about 40% of the time.)
svn:r9733
Fix a bug found by Udo van den Heuvel: avoid an assertion failure when a controller sets and clears EntryNodes before the next call to choose_random_entry(). Also make a function static.
svn:r9669
Node-picking fixes: Never warn when a down node is listed in a config option (bug 348); always warn when a node in a config option is unnamed. Also, when entrynodes is configured, then build the guard list as: (parts of EntryNodes that were guards before), (the rest of EntryNodes), (the rest of the old guards). This last point ensures that EntryNode users will get the EntryNodes they want with the minimum change to their guard list.
svn:r9574
Implement proposal 106: stop requiring clients to have certificates, and stop checking for nicknames in certificates. [See proposal 106 for rationale.] Also improve messages when checking TLS handshake, to re-resolve bug 382.
svn:r9568
Resolve some XXXX012 items:
- Remove PathlenCoinWeight: if we want it again, we can add it
back in.
- Ditto with RelayBandwidth*.
- Decide to leave in the "hey, you didn't set end_reason!" BUG log message,
but stop telling people to bug me personally.
- Postpone strengthening assert_connection_ok(): it's important, but
it's also a good way to introduce weird bugs.
- Move some expensive consistency checking from dns_free_all() into
assert_cache_ok().
svn:r9533
Fix an XXXX012, and make circuits_pending_or_conns a static variable. In addition to cleaning up the code, this may also resolve Bug 386 if Roger has the right intuition there.
svn:r9482
Removing the last DOCDOC comment hurt so much that I had to use Doxygen to identify undocumented macros and comments, and add 150 more DOCDOCs to point out where they were. Oops. Hey, kids! Fixing some of these could be your first Tor patch!
svn:r9477
Write the entry guards section of path-spec; note a possible bug in cirbuitbuild.c; add a const; defer work on torrc.complete to be part of a bigger config documentation reorg.
svn:r9465
directory tunnel without knowing a descriptor first. Still not
ready yet. As part of the change, now assume we can use a
create_fast cell if we don't know anything about a router.
svn:r9440
Tidy up ORCONN reason patch from Mike Perry. Changes: make some of the handling of TLS error codes less error prone. Enforce house style wrt spaces. Make it compile with --enable-gcc-warnings. Only set or_conn->tls_error in the case of an actual error. Add a changelog entry.
svn:r9355
Revise logic used to flush state to disk. Now, we try to batch non-urgent changes so that we do not do too many writes, and we save very-non-urgent changes every once in a rare while, and we never save more than once per second.
svn:r9047
Apply patch from Mike Perry: add more reasons for circuit destroys. (Slightly tweaked to avoid allocating a number for an "internal" reason.)
svn:r8739
Add client support for a 'BadExit' flag, so authorities can say "Server X is a poor choise for your nytimes.com connections, as it seems to direct them to HoorayForMao.com or (more likely) WouldYouLikeToBuyTheseFineEncyclopedias.com"
svn:r8690
Touch up last patch (to add REASON to CIRC events): make some reasons
more sensible, send reasons only to controllers that have enabled
extended events, and clean up whitespace.
svn:r8672
Partial implementation of revised nickname syntax for controllers. Implement ability to look up routers by "verbose" nicknames; add a per-v1-control-connection flag to turn the feature on in events. Needs testing, spec, ability to actually turn on the flag, double-checking that we wont overflow any nickname buffers, and changelog.
svn:r8582
Remove/clarify some XXXs for no longer being accurate; for begin things we do not indend to fix; for already being parts of big todo issues (like "/* XXX ipv6 */"); etc. Also fix some spaces.
svn:r8580
Disprefer exit nodes for entry, middle positions (fixes bug 200). Also, switch to using a uint64_t to hold "total bandwidth for all nodes" under consideration; crypt_rand_int would have died at 2GB/s network capacity.
svn:r8571
Another tweak to guard logic: ignore check for the Guard flag if a server is listed on EntryNodes. (Also remove redundant checks for always-set variables.)
svn:r8522
Improvement to last entry guards patch: track when we last attempted to connect to a node in our state file along with how long it has been unreachable. Also clarify behavior of parse_iso_time() when it gets extra characters.
svn:r8520
Refactor entry guard status logic a lot; allow more factors [like not
having a Guard flag or being listed in ExcludeNodes] to render a guard
"unlisted" (now called "unusable"); track guard down status (now
called "unreachable") separately from is_running.
