Hope is this will make it easier to test on the live tor network.
Does not need to be merged if we don't want to, but will come in handy
for researchers.

Redefine the set of bootstrap phases to allow display of finer-grained
progress in the early connection stages of connecting to a relay.
This includes adding intermediate phases for proxy and PT connections.
Also add a separate new phase to indicate obtaining enough directory
info to build circuits so we can report that independently of actually
initiating an ORCONN to build the first application circuit.
Previously, we would claim to be connecting to a relay when we had
merely finished obtaining directory info.
Part of ticket 27167.
Replace a few invocations of control_event_bootstrap() with calls from
the bootstrap tracker subsystem. This mostly leaves behavior
unchanged. The actual behavior changes come in the next commit.
Part of ticket 27167.
Specifically, if the consensus is older than the (estimted or
measured) release date for this version of tor, we assume that the
required versions may have changed in between that consensus and
this release.
Implements ticket 27735 and proposal 297.
Prop298 says that family entries should be formatted with
$hexids in uppercase, nicknames in lower case, $hexid~names
truncated, and everything sorted lexically. These changes implement
that ordering for nodefamily.c.
We don't _strictly speaking_ need to nodefamily.c formatting use
this for prop298 microdesc generation, but it seems silly to have
two separate canonicalization algorithms.
This representation is meant to save memory in microdescriptors --
we can't use it in routerinfo_t yet, since those families need to be
encoded losslessly for directory voting to work.
This representation saves memory in three ways:
1. It uses only one allocation per family. (The old way used a
smartlist (2 allocs) plus one strdup per entry.)
2. It stores identity digests in binary, not hex.
3. It keeps families in a canonical format, memoizes, and
reference-counts them.
Part of #27359.
