f9d57473e1 Create TestingDirAuthVoteHSDir like TestingDirAuthVoteExit/Guard
TestingDirAuthVoteHSDir ensures that authorities vote the HSDir flag
for the listed relays regardless of uptime or ORPort connectivity.
Respects the value of VoteOnHidServDirectoriesV2.

Partial fix for bug 14067.

35efce1f3f Add an ExitRelay option to override ExitPolicy
If we're not a relay, we ignore it.

If it's set to 1, we obey ExitPolicy.

If it's set to 0, we force ExitPolicy to 'reject *:*'

And if it's set to auto, then we warn the user if they're running an
exit, and tell them how they can stop running an exit if they didn't
mean to do that.

Fixes ticket 10067

74cd57517c New option "HiddenServiceAllowUnknownPorts"
This allows hidden services to disable the anti-scanning feature
introduced in 0.2.6.2-alpha. With this option not set, a connection
to an unlisted port closes the circuit.  With this option set, only
a RELAY_DONE cell is sent.

Closes ticket #14084.

14e83e626b Add two hidden-service related statistics.
The two statistics are:
 1. number of RELAY cells observed on successfully established
    rendezvous circuits; and
 2. number of .onion addresses observed as hidden-service
    directory.

Both statistics are accumulated over 24 hours, obfuscated by rounding
up to the next multiple of a given number and adding random noise,
and written to local file stats/hidserv-stats.

Notably, no statistics will be gathered on clients or services, but
only on relays.

68af1e7e9b Throw identify-node-by-nickname down the memory hole
Authorities are no longer voting on Named, so specifying nodes by
nickname isn't a clever thing to do.  (Not that it ever was!)  So
remove the documentation that suggests that you should do it.

Additionally, add proper cross-references to our __node__ lists, and
explain about the optional $ before identity digests.

Also, the oxford comma: endorsed by Steven Pinker, my spouse, and my
11th grade English teacher.

Closes 13381.

27f30040f6 Add TestingDirAuthVoteExit option (like TestingDirAuthVoteGuard)
Add the TestingDirAuthVoteExit option, a list of nodes to vote Exit for,
regardless of their uptime, bandwidth, or exit policy.

TestingTorNetwork must be set for this option to have any effect.

Works around an issue where authorities would take up to 35 minutes to
give nodes the Exit flag in a test network, despite short consensus
intervals. Partially implements ticket 13161.

17ecd04fde Change the logic for the default for MaxMemInQueues
If we can't detect the physical memory, the new default is 8 GB on
64-bit architectures, and 1 GB on 32-bit architectures.

If we *can* detect the physical memory, the new default is
  CLAMP(256 MB, phys_mem * 0.75, MAX_DFLT)
where MAX_DFLT is 8 GB on 64-bit architectures and 2 GB on 32-bit
architectures.

You can still override the default by hand.  The logic here is simply
trying to choose a lower default value on systems with less than 12 GB
of physical RAM.

f680d0fdd2 Educate tor on OpenBSD's use of divert-to rules with the pf firewall.
This means that tor can run without needing to communicate with ioctls
to the firewall, and therefore doesn't need to run with privileges to
open the /dev/pf device node.

A new TransProxyType is added for this purpose, "pf-divert"; if the user
specifies this TransProxyType in their torrc, then the pf device node is
never opened and the connection destination is determined with getsockname
(as per pf(4)). The default behaviour (ie., when TransProxyType is "default"
when using the pf firewall) is still to assume that pf is configured with
rdr-to rules.

/dev/pf is present and openable, but that seems marginally fragile.)
