The former foo_validate() functions are now toplevel
legacy_validate_fn callbacks. The new foo_validate() functions now
call them.
This change lets us remove the old shared_random disk state
validation callback entirely.
The current API of this callback mixes responsibilities, including:
* validation
* transition checking
* processing (modifying) the configuration object.
These will have to be disentangled piece by piece, so for now, we'll
have "legacy" validate functions as well.

The right way to free a config object is now to wrap config_free(),
always. Instead of creating an alternative free function, objects
should provide an alternative clear callback to free any fields that
the configuration manager doesn't manage.
This lets us simplify our code a little, and lets us extend the
confparse.c code to manage additional fields in config_free.
It's important to make sure that we don't change a config_mgr_t
after we start using it to make objects, or we could get into
inconsistent states. This feature is the start of a safety
mechanism to prevent this problem.
Remember that our goal in the present refactoring is to allow each
subsystem to declare its own configuration structure and
variables. To do this, each module will get its own
config_format_t, and so we'll want a different structure that wraps
several config_format_t objects. This is a "config_mgr_t".
Now that we have a reasonable implementation for overriding the
default options for TestingTorNetwork, we don't need to modify
config_var_t structs any more. And therefore, we can have constant
format options, like reasonable people.
When freeing a configuration object from confparse.c in
dump_config(), we need to call the appropriate higher-level free
function (like or_options_free()) and not just config_free().
This only happens with options (since they're the one where
options_validate allocates extra stuff) and only when running
--dump-config with something other than minimal (since
OPTIONS_DUMP_MINIMAL doesn't hit this code).
Fixes bug 27893; bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha.
This commit won't build yet -- it just puts everything in a slightly
more logical place.
The reasoning here is that "src/core" will hold the stuff that every (or
nearly every) tor instance will need in order to do onion routing.
Other features (including some necessary ones) will live in
"src/feature". The "src/app" directory will hold the stuff needed
to have Tor be an application you can actually run.
This commit DOES NOT refactor the former contents of src/or into a
logical set of acyclic libraries, or change any code at all. That
will have to come in the future.
We will continue to move things around and split them in the future,
but I hope this lays a reasonable groundwork for doing so.
