This commit introduces the src/or/dos.{c|h} files that contains the code for
the Denial of Service mitigation subsystem. It currently contains basic
functions to initialize and free the subsystem. They are used at this commit.
The torrc options and consensus parameters are defined at this commit and
getters are implemented.

For 23847, we want Tor to be able to shut down and then restart in
the same process. Here's a patch to make the Tor binary do that.
To test it, you need to build with --enable-restart-debugging, and
then you need to set the environment variable TOR_DEBUG_RESTART.
With this option, Tor will then run for 5 seconds, then restart
itself in-process without exiting. This only happens once.
You can change the 5-second interval using
TOR_DEBUG_RESTART_AFTER_SECONDS.
Implements ticket 24583.
This patch adds support for MainloopStats that allow developers to get
main event loop statistics via Tor's heartbeat status messages. The new
status log message will show how many succesful, erroneous, and idle
event loop iterations we have had.

Adding tor_remove_file(filename) and refactoring tor_cleanup().
Removing CookieAuthFile and ExtORPortCookieAuthFile when tor_cleanup() is
called.
Fixes#23271.

This function leaks memory when the event_base is freed before the
event itself fires. That's not harmful, but it's annoying when
trying to debug other memory leaks.
Fixes bug 24584; bugfix on 0.2.8.1-alpha.
When we didn't do this before, we'd have some still-reachable memory
warnings, and we'd find ourselves crashing when we tried to
reinitialize libevent.
Part of 24581 (don't crash when restarting Tor in-process)
This patch is a result of auditing all of our uses of
get_datadir_fname() and its kin, and dividing them into cache vs
keys vs other data.
The new get_keydir_fname() and get_cachedir_fname() functions don't
actually do anything new yet.
DisableNetwork is a subset of net_is_disabled(), which is (now) a
subset of should_delay_dir_fetches().
Some of these changes are redundant with others higher or lower in
the call stack. The ones that I think are behavior-relevant are
listed in the changes file. I've also added comments in a few
places where the behavior is subtle.
Fixes bug 12062; bugfix on various versions.
It _should_ work, and I don't see a reason that it wouldn't, but
just in case, add a 10 second timer to make tor die with an
assertion failure if it's supposed to exit but it doesn't.
This function was never about 'finishing' the event loop, but rather
about making sure that the code outside the event loop would be run
at least once.
Sometimes when we call exit(), it's because the process is
completely hopeless: openssl has a broken AES-CTR implementation, or
the clock is in the 1960s, or something like that.
But sometimes, we should return cleanly from tor_main() instead, so
that embedders can keep embedding us and start another Tor process.
I've gone through all the exit() and _exit() calls to annotate them
with "exit ok" or "XXXX bad exit" -- the next step will be to fix
the bad exit()s.
First step towards 23848.
