Accomplished via the following:
1. Use NETINFO cells to determine if both peers will agree on canonical
status. Prefer connections where they agree to those where they do not.
2. Alter channel_is_better() to prefer older orconns in the case of multiple
canonical connections, and use the orconn with more circuits on it in case
of age ties.
Also perform some hourly accounting on how many of these types of connections
there are and log it at info or notice level.
This unifies CircuitIdleTimeout and PredictedCircsRelevanceTime into a single
option, and randomizes it.
It also gives us control over the default value as well as relay-to-relay
connection lifespan through the consensus.

This defense will cause Cisco, Juniper, Fortinet, and other routers operating
in the default configuration to collapse netflow records that would normally
be split due to the 15 second flow idle timeout.
Collapsing these records should greatly reduce the utility of default netflow
data for correlation attacks, since all client-side records should become 30
minute chunks of total bytes sent/received, rather than creating multiple
separate records for every webpage load/ssh command interaction/XMPP chat/whatever
else happens to be inactive for more than 15 seconds.
The defense adds consensus parameters to govern the range of timeout values
for sending padding packets, as well as for keeping connections open.
The defense only sends padding when connections are otherwise inactive, and it
does not pad connections used solely for directory traffic at all. By default
it also doesn't pad inter-relay connections.
Statistics on the total padding in the last 24 hours are exported to the
extra-info descriptors.
This was a >630-line function, which doesn't make anybody happy. It
was also mostly composed of a bunch of if-statements that handled
different directory responses differently depending on the original
purpose of the directory connection. The logical refactoring here
is to move the body of each switch statement into a separate handler
function, and to invoke those functions from a separate switch
statement.
This commit leaves whitespace mostly untouched, for ease of review.
I'll reindent in the next commit.
Inform the control port with an HS_DESC failed event when the client is unable
to pick an HSDir. It's followed by an empty HS_DESC_CONTENT event. In order to
achieve that, some control port code had to be modified to accept a NULL HSDir
identity digest.
This commit also adds a trigger of a failed event when we are unable to
base64-decode the descriptor cookie.

Increase the maximum allowed size passed to mprotect(PROT_WRITE)
from 1MB to 16MB. This was necessary with the glibc allocator
in order to allow worker threads to allocate more memory --
which in turn is necessary because of our new use of worker
threads for compression.
Closes ticket #22096. Found while working on #21648.
Bridge lines in torrc can contain key=value settings as per-connection
arguments to a pluggable transport. tor.1.txt hadn't been updated to
reflect this.
This commit adds the src/trace directory containing the basics for our tracing
subsystem. It is not used in the code base. The "src/trace/debug.h" file
contains an example on how we can map our tor trace events to log_debug().
The tracing subsystem can only be enabled by tracing framework at compile
time. This commit introduces the "--enable-tracing-debug" option that will
make all "tor_trace()" function be maped to "log_debug()".

That log statement can be triggered if somebody on the Internet behaves badly
which is possible with buggy implementation for instance.

The GETINFO extra-info/digest/<digest> broke in commit 568dc27a19 that
refactored the base16_decode() API to return the decoded length.
Unfortunately, that if() condition should have checked for the correct length
instead of an error which broke the command in tor-0.2.9.1-alpha.

Pinning EntryNodes along with hidden services can be possibly harmful (for
instance #14917 and #21155) so at the very least warn the operator if this is
the case.

When we "fixed" #18280 in 4e4a7d2b0c
in 0291 it appears that we introduced a bug: The base32_encode
function can read off the end of the input buffer, if the input
buffer size modulo 5 is not equal to 0 or 3.
This is not completely horrible, for two reasons:
* The extra bits that are read are never actually used: so this
is only a crash when asan is enabled, in the worst case. Not a
data leak.
* The input sizes passed to base32_encode are only ever multiples
of 5. They are all either DIGEST_LEN (20), REND_SERVICE_ID_LEN
(10), sizeof(rand_bytes) in addressmap.c (10), or an input in
crypto.c that is forced to a multiple of 5.
So this bug can't actually trigger in today's Tor.
Closes bug 21894; bugfix on 0.2.9.1-alpha.
