73d93c033d Autodetect the number of CPUs when possible if NumCPUs==0
This is needed for IOCP, since telling the IOCP backend about all
your CPUs is a good idea.  It'll also come in handy with asn's
multithreaded crypto stuff, and for people who run servers without
reading the manual.

6f45101327 Clear cell queues when marking or truncating a circuit.
At best, this patch helps us avoid sending queued relayed cells that
would get ignored during the time between when a destroy cell is
sent and when the circuit is finally freed.  At worst, it lets us
release some memory a little earlier than it would otherwise.

Fix for bug #1184.  Bugfix on 0.2.0.1-alpha.

4ef609b886 Fix compilation issue in doc/Makefile.am on NetBSD
* doc/Makefile.am: Change $(VAR:MOD) to ${VAR:MOD} -- make(1) on
NetBSD substitutes '$(:x)' to 'x' rather than the empty string.  This
bites us in doc/ when configured with `--disable-asciidoc'.  Curly
braces should work in all implementations of make(1) but this patch
changes only the places where we use the VAR:MOD expansion.

9d5d0f040f Alter how guard flags are chosen.
V3 authorities no longer decide not to vote on Guard+Exit. The bandwidth
weights should take care of this now.

Also, lower the max threshold for WFU to 0.98, to allow more nodes to become
guards.

f4f11adf4c In asciidoc-helper.sh, be more verbose when a2x fails.
Previously, we said (more or less), "a2x is broken and here's how you could
try to fix it".  Instead, we now say "We need a2x to build manpages; a2x
didn't work; here is a fix that might work for you; alternatively you
could just skip manpage building."

Addresses bug 1524.

Also, give the message as a here-document rather than a bunch of echos.

96a0edf373 Rename CircPriorityHalflifeMsec to CircuitPriorityHalflifeMsec
Everything that accepted the 'Circ' name handled it wrong, so even now
that we fixed the handling of the parameter, we wouldn't be able to
set it without making all the 0.2.2.7..0.2.2.10 relays act wonky.
This patch makes Tors accept the 'Circuit' name instead, so we can
turn on circuit priorities without confusing the versions that treated
the 'Circ' name as occasion to act weird.
