Here is how this changes the HSv3 client-side and service-side:
For service side we already required live consensus to upload descriptors (see
9e900d1db7) so we should never get there without
a live consensus.
For the client-side we now require a live consensus to attempt to connect to
HS. While this changes the client behavior in principle, it doesn't really
change it, because we always required live consensus to set HSDir indices, so
before this patch a client with no live consensus would try to compute
responsible HSDirs without any HSDir indices and bug out. This makes the client
behavior more consistent, by requiring a live consensus (and hence a
semi-synced clock) for the client to connect to an HS entirely.
The alternative would have been to allow setting HSDir indices with a non-live
consensus, but this would cause the various problems outlined by commit
b89d2fa1db.
There are a few reasons that relays might be uploading desciptors
without saying X-Desc-Gen-Reason:
1. They are running an old version of our software, before 0.3.2.stable.
2. They are not running our software, but they are claiming they
are.
3. They are uploading through a proxy that strips X-Desc-Gen-Reason.
4. They somehow had a bug in their software.
According to the 25686 data, 1 is the most common reason. This
ticket is an attempt to diagnose case 4, or prove that case 4
doesn't actually happen.
With the work on #25500 (reducing CPU client usage), the HS service main loop
callback is enabled as soon as the HS service map changes which happens when
registering a new service.
Unfortunately, for an ephemeral service, we were building the onion address
*after* the registration leading to the "service->onion_address` to be an
empty string.
This broke the "HS_DESC CREATED" event which had no onion address in it. And
also, we were logging an empty onion address for that service.

* REFACTORS `UnvalidatedProtoEntry::from_str` to place the bulk of the
splitting/parsing logic in to a new
`UnvalidatedProtoEntry::parse_protocol_and_version_str()` method (so that
both `from_str()` and `from_str_any_len()` can call it.)
* ADD a new `UnvalidatedProtoEntry::from_str_any_len()` method in order to
maintain compatibility with consensus methods older than 29.
* ADD a limit on the number of characters in a protocol name.

In protover.c, the `expand_protocol_list()` function expands a `smartlist_t` of
`proto_entry_t`s to their protocol name concatenated with each version number.
For example, given a `proto_entry_t` like so:
proto_entry_t *proto = tor_malloc(sizeof(proto_entry_t));
proto_range_t *range = tor_malloc_zero(sizeof(proto_range_t));
proto->name = tor_strdup("DoSaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa[19KB]aaa");
proto->ranges = smartlist_new();
range->low = 1;
range->high = 65536;
smartlist_add(proto->ranges, range);
(Where `[19KB]` is roughly 19KB of `"a"` bytes.) This would expand in
`expand_protocol_list()` to a `smartlist_t` containing 65536 copies of the
string, e.g.:
"DoSaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa[19KB]aaa=1"
"DoSaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa[19KB]aaa=2"
[…]
"DoSaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa[19KB]aaa=65535"
Thus constituting a potential resource exhaustion attack.
The Rust implementation is not subject to this attack, because it instead
expands the above string into a `HashMap<String, HashSet<u32>` prior to #24031,
and a `HashMap<UnvalidatedProtocol, ProtoSet>` after). Neither Rust version is
subject to this attack, because it only stores the `String` once per protocol.
(Although a related, but apparently of too minor impact to be usable, DoS bug
has been fixed in #24031. [0])

Apparently, even though I had tested on OpenSSL 1.1.1 with
no-deprecated, OpenSSL 1.1.0 is different enough that I should have
tested with that as well.
Fixes bug 26156; bugfix on 0.3.4.1-alpha where we first declared
support for this configuration.
