As a trivial optimization, remove a redundant call to router_have_minimum_dir_info. This might shave 2% on some systems by according to some profilers.

Node-picking fixes: Never warn when a down node is listed in a config option (bug 348); always warn when a node in a config option is unnamed. Also, when entrynodes is configured, then build the guard list as: (parts of EntryNodes that were guards before), (the rest of EntryNodes), (the rest of the old guards). This last point ensures that EntryNode users will get the EntryNodes they want with the minimum change to their guard list.
svn:r9574
Handle errors on opening cached-routers* more uniformly and sanely: log not-found errors at level INFO, and all other errors at level WARN. Needs testing on win32.
svn:r9569
Fix several bugs in computing recommended versions. 1) refactor is-this-version-good handling and which-vesions-are-good handling to be in the same place. 2) a version is recommended if more than half of the versioning authorities like it, not >= half. 3) "NEW_IN_SERIES" should mean, "I don't know of an 0.1.1.x this recent, and there are some 0.1.2.x versions out", not "I don't know of an 0.1.1.x this recent, but I know some older ones." This should resolve bug 383.

Removing the last DOCDOC comment hurt so much that I had to use Doxygen to identify undocumented macros and comments, and add 150 more DOCDOCs to point out where they were. Oops. Hey, kids! Fixing some of these could be your first Tor patch!
svn:r9477
Fix an XXXX012 in routerlist.c: when we do not have enough networkstatuses to launch router requests, do not launch router requests. Backport candidate.
svn:r9388
Clear untrusted networkstatuses after 10 days too. (This is not a terribly awful bug, since we would only ever retain 16 of them, but it still might be nice to backport.) Resolves part A of bug 372.
svn:r9324
Add (and specify) a BadDirectory flag to networkstatuses, so authorities can tell clients that some caches are broken. Also, implement an as-yet-unused function to estimate how many bytes will be sent on a directory connection.
svn:r9255
Track when we get 503s from directory servers. Do not use directory servers that have given us a 503 until either an hour has passed, or we are are out of non-busy servers.
svn:r9172
Add an orport option to dirserver lines so that clients can tell where to connect to open an encrypted tunnel to a dirserver even before they have its descriptor.
svn:r9171
fix a rare memory leak if something goes wrong while rebuilding it,
and clean up some code. nick, please confirm.
reported by "fookoowa" in flyspray 346 (yay!)
svn:r8789
Add unit tests for tor_mmap_file(); make tor_mmap_t.size always be the size of the file (not the size of the mapping); add an extra argument to read_file_to_str() so it can return the size of the result string.
svn:r8762
Never discard a descriptor for being too old until either it is recommended by no authorities, or until we download a better (more recent and recommended) one for the same router. This will eventually make it possible for servers to publish less often.
svn:r8761
Change to BadExit logic: Let authorities set an "I list bad exits" flag. Consider an exit bad if it is listed as bad by more than half of *those* authorities. This gives us a better migration path.
svn:r8756
Add client support for a 'BadExit' flag, so authorities can say "Server X is a poor choise for your nytimes.com connections, as it seems to direct them to HoorayForMao.com or (more likely) WouldYouLikeToBuyTheseFineEncyclopedias.com"
svn:r8690
Partial implementation of revised nickname syntax for controllers. Implement ability to look up routers by "verbose" nicknames; add a per-v1-control-connection flag to turn the feature on in events. Needs testing, spec, ability to actually turn on the flag, double-checking that we wont overflow any nickname buffers, and changelog.
svn:r8582
Disprefer exit nodes for entry, middle positions (fixes bug 200). Also, switch to using a uint64_t to hold "total bandwidth for all nodes" under consideration; crypt_rand_int would have died at 2GB/s network capacity.
svn:r8571
Reserve the nickname "Unnamed" for routers that can't pick a hostname; any
router can call itself Unnamed; directory servers will never allocate Unnamed
to any particular router; clients won't believe that any router is the
canonical Unnamed.
svn:r8529
Make "is a v1 authority", "is a v2 authority", and "is a hidden service authority" into separate flags so we can eventually migrate more trust away from moria.
svn:r8523
Refactor entry guard status logic a lot; allow more factors [like not
having a Guard flag or being listed in ExcludeNodes] to render a guard
"unlisted" (now called "unusable"); track guard down status (now
called "unreachable") separately from is_running.
svn:r8519
router_set_networkstatus() gets a list of status documents we asked for from
connection_dir_client_reached_eof(). However, as a cache we (sometimes?) just
ask for "all". router_set_networkstatus() would freak out over that, meaning
it would log a warning and drop the status document instead of caching it
as it is supposed to. Now we let router_set_networkstatus() know if the
data comes from an all-request so it can do the right thing.
svn:r8398
Only do the expensive version of router_have_minimum_dir_info() when the dir info has changed. Backport candidate, since oprofile suggests that this function and ones it calls account for 25-35% of oprofile samples.
svn:r7062
Refactor connection_t into edge, or, dir, control, and base subtypes. This might save some RAM on busy exit servers, but really matters most in terms of correctness.
svn:r6906
This is because we get a lot of network statuses that don't list
us at all, and we conclude that they all think we're invalid.
The long-term fix is to get better logic, and the short-term fix
is to downgrade the log severity.
