We currently assume that the only way for Tor to listen on ports in the
privileged port range (1 to 1023), on Linux, is if we are granted the
NET_BIND_SERVICE capability. Today on Linux, it's possible to specify
the beginning of the unprivileged port range using a sysctl
configuration option. Docker (and thus the CI service Tor uses) recently
changed this sysctl value to 0, which causes our tests to fail as they
assume that we should NOT be able to bind to a privileged port *without*
the NET_BIND_SERVICE capability.
In this patch, we read the value of the sysctl value via the /proc/sys/
filesystem iff it's present, otherwise we assume the default
unprivileged port range begins at port 1024.

The TORPROTOCOL reason causes the client to close the circuit which is not
what we want because other valid streams might be on it.
Instead, CONNECTION_REFUSED will leave it open but will not allow more streams
to be attached to it. The client then open a new circuit to the destination.

This is to minimize false positive and thus deny reentry to Exit connections
that were in reality not re-entering. Helps with overall UX.

Obey the "allow-network-reentry" consensus parameters in order to decide to
allow it or not at the Exit.
