68af1e7e9b Throw identify-node-by-nickname down the memory hole
Authorities are no longer voting on Named, so specifying nodes by
nickname isn't a clever thing to do.  (Not that it ever was!)  So
remove the documentation that suggests that you should do it.

Additionally, add proper cross-references to our __node__ lists, and
explain about the optional $ before identity digests.

Also, the oxford comma: endorsed by Steven Pinker, my spouse, and my
11th grade English teacher.

Closes 13381.

27f30040f6 Add TestingDirAuthVoteExit option (like TestingDirAuthVoteGuard)
Add the TestingDirAuthVoteExit option, a list of nodes to vote Exit for,
regardless of their uptime, bandwidth, or exit policy.

TestingTorNetwork must be set for this option to have any effect.

Works around an issue where authorities would take up to 35 minutes to
give nodes the Exit flag in a test network, despite short consensus
intervals. Partially implements ticket 13161.

607724c696 Remove support for naming directory authorities
This implements the meat of #12899. This commit should simply remove the
parts of Tor dirauths used to check whether a relay was supposed to be
named or not, it doesn't yet convert to a new mechanism for
reject/invalid/baddir/badexiting relays.

10fe5bad9a Remove the AuthDirRejectUnlisted config option
This is in preparation for a big patch series removing the entire Naming
system from Tor. In its wake, the approved-routers file is being
deprecated, and a replacement option to allow only pre-approved routers
is not being implemented.

0808ed83f9 Restore functionality for CookieAuthFileGroupReadable.
When we merged the cookieauthfile creation logic in 33c3e60a37, we
accidentally took out this feature.  Fixes bug 12864, bugfix on
0.2.5.1-alpha.

Also adds an ExtORPortCookieAuthFileGroupReadable, since there's no
reason not to.
