Removing a ".auth" file revokes a client access to the service but the
rendezvous circuit is not closed service side because the service simply
doesn't know which circuit is for which client.
This commit notes in the man page that to fully revoke a client access to the
service, the tor process should be restarted.

The DormantClientTimeout option controls how long Tor will wait before
going dormant. It also provides a way to disable the feature by setting
DormantClientTimeout to e.g. "50 years".
The DormantTimeoutDisabledByIdleStreams option controls whether open but
inactive streams count as "client activity". To implement it, I had to
make it so that reading or writing on a client stream *always* counts as
activity.
Closes ticket 28429.
By adding a file to the ClientOnionAuthDir and sending a HUP signal, tor would
load the new file and use it. However, that doesn't work with the Sandbox
since post initilization, nothing can be changed.
Document in the manpage that limitation within the Sandbox description.

Since the default cache directory is the same as the default data
directory, we don't want the default CacheDirectoryGroupReadable
value (0) to override an explicitly set "DataDirectoryGroupReadable
1".
To fix this, I'm making CacheDirectoryGroupReadable into an
autobool, and having the default (auto) value mean "Use the value of
DataDirectoryGroupReadable if the directories are the same, and 0
otherwise."
Fixes bug 26913; bugfix on 0.3.3.1-alpha when the CacheDirectory
option was introduced.
This patch changes HiddenServiceExportCircuitID so instead of being a
boolean it takes a string, which is the protocol. Currently only the
'haproxy' protocol is defined.

Stop saying in the manual that clients cache ipv4 dns answers from exit
relays. We haven't used them since 0.2.6.3-alpha, and in ticket 24050
we stopped even caching them as of 0.3.2.6-alpha, but we forgot to say
so in the man page.
Fixes bug 26052; bugfix on 0.3.2.6-alpha.
