d66549c208 fetch missing bridge descriptors without delay
Without this change, if we have a working bridge, and we add a new bridge,
we will schedule the fetch attempt for that new bridge descriptor for
three hours(!) in the future.

This change is especially needed because of bug #40396, where if you have
one working bridge and one bridge whose descriptor you haven't fetched
yet, your Tor will stall until you have successfully fetched that new
descriptor -- in this case for hours.

In the old design, we would put off all further bridge descriptor fetches
once we had any working bridge descriptor. In this new design, we make the
decision per bridge based on whether we successfully got *its* descriptor.

To make this work, we need to also call learned_bridge_descriptor() every
time we get a bridge descriptor, not just when it's a novel descriptor.

Fixes bug 40396.

Also happens to fix bug 40495 (redundant descriptor fetches for every
bridge) since now we delay fetches once we succeed.

A side effect of this change is that if we have any configured bridges
that *aren't* working, we will keep trying to fetch their descriptors
on the modern directory retry schedule -- every couple of seconds for
the first half minute, then backing off after that -- which is a lot
faster than before.

2ae24d003d Add a MinTimeToReportBandwidth option; make it 0 for testing networks.
This option changes the time for which a bandwidth measurement period
must have been in progress before we include it when reporting our
observed bandwidth in our descriptors.  Without this option, we only
consider a time period towards our maximum if it has been running
for a full day.  Obviously, that's unacceptable for testing
networks, where we'd like to get results as soon as possible.

For non-testing networks, I've put a (somewhat arbitrary) 2-hour
minimum on the option, since there are traffic analysis concerns
with immediate reporting here.

Closes #40337.

94b56eaa75 dos: New client connect rate detection
This is a new detection type which is that a relay can now control the rate of
client connections from a single address.

The mechanism is pretty simple, if the rate/burst is reached, the address is
marked for a period of time and any connection from that address is denied.
