We cap our number of CPU worker threads to at least 2 even if we have a
single core. But also, before we used to always add one extra thread
regardless of the number of core.
This meant that we were off when re-using the get_num_cpus() function
when calculating our onionskin work overhead because we were always off
by one.
This commit makes it that we always use the number of thread our actual
thread pool was configured with.

Cap this to 2 threads always because we need a low and high priority
thread even with a single core.

This change mitigates DNS-based website oracles by making the time that
a domain name is cached uncertain (+- 4 minutes of what's measurable).
Resolves TROVE-2021-009.

This is part of the fast path so we need to cache consensus parameters
instead of querying it everytime we need to learn a value.

Until now, there was this magic number (64) used as the maximum number
of tasks a CPU worker can take at once.
This commit makes it a consensus parameter so our future selves can
think of a better value depending on network conditions.

Transform the hardcoded value ONIONQUEUE_WAIT_CUTOFF into a consensus
parameter so we can control it network wide.

This also incidently removes a use of uninitialized stack data from the
connection_or_set_ext_or_identifier() function.

This BUG() was added when the code was written to see if this callback
was ever executed after we marked the handle as EOF. It turns out, it
does, but we handle it gracefully. We can therefore remove the BUG().
Fixes tpo/core/tor#40596.
