Consensus method 25 is the oldest one supported by any stable
version of 0.2.9, which is our current most-recent LTS. Thus, by
proposal 290, they should be removed.
This commit does not actually remove the code to implement these
methods: it only makes it so authorities will no longer support
them. I'll remove the backend code for them in later commits.
Commit e67f4441eb introduced a safeguard against
using an uninitialized voting schedule object. However, the dirvote_act() code
was looking roughly at the same thing to know if it had to compute the timings
before voting with this condition:
if (!voting_schedule.voting_starts) {
...
dirvote_recalculate_timing(options, now);
}
The sr_init() function is called very early and goes through the safeguard
thus the voting schedule is always initilized before the first vote.
That first vote is a crucial one because we need to have our voting schedule
aligned to the "now" time we are about to use for voting. Then, the schedule
is updated when we publish our consensus or/and when we set a new consensus.
From that point on, we only want to update the voting schedule through that
code flow.
This "created_on_demand" is indicating that the timings have been recalculated
on demand by another subsystem so if it is flagged, we know that we need to
ignore its values before voting.

dirvote_get_next_valid_after_time() is the only public function that uses the
voting schedule outside of the dirvote subsystem so if it is zeroed,
recalculate its timing if we can that is if a consensus exists.

Because the HS subsystem needs the voting schedule to compute time period, we
need all tor type to do that.

The exposed get_voting_schedule() allocates and return a new object everytime
it is called leading to an awful lot of memory allocation when getting the
start time of the current round which is done for each node in the consensus.

These statistics were largely ununsed, and kept track of statistical information
on things like how many time we had done TLS or how many signatures we had
verified. This information is largely not useful, and would only be logged
after receiving a SIGUSR1 signal (but only if the logging severity level was
less than LOG_INFO).
* FIXES#19871.
* REMOVES note_crypto_pk_op(), dump_pk_op(), and pk_op_counts from
src/or/rephist.c.
* REMOVES every external call to these functions.
This should be "impossible" without making a SHA1 collision, but
let's not keep the assumption that SHA1 collisions are super-hard.
This prevents another case related to 21278. There should be no
behavioral change unless -ftrapv is on.

(Despite the increased size of the consensus, this should have
approximately zero effect on the compressed consensus size, since
the "proto" line should be completely implied by the "v" line.)
