This patch fixes a crash bug (assertion failure) in the PT subsystem
that could get triggered if the user cancels bootstrap via the UI in
TorBrowser. This would cause Tor to call `managed_proxy_destroy()` which
called `process_free()` after it had called `process_terminate()`. This
leads to a crash when the various process callbacks returns with data
after the `process_t` have been freed using `process_free()`.
We solve this issue by ensuring that everywhere we call
`process_terminate()` we make sure to detach the `managed_proxy_t` from
the `process_t` (by calling `process_set_data(process, NULL)`) and avoid
calling `process_free()` at all in the transports code. Instead we just
call `process_terminate()` and let the process exit callback in
`managed_proxy_exit_callback()` handle the `process_free()` call by
returning true to the process subsystem.
See: https://bugs.torproject.org/29562
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.
Add a tracker for bootstrap progress, tracking events related to
origin circuit and ORCONN states. This uses the ocirc_event and
orconn_event publish-subscribe subsystems.
Part of ticket 27167.
Add a publish-subscribe subsystem to publish messages about changes to
origin circuits.
Functions in circuitbuild.c and circuitlist.c publish messages to this
subsystem.
Move circuit event constants out of control.h so that subscribers
don't have to include all of control.h to take actions based on
messages they receive.
Part of ticket 27167.
Add a publish-subscribe subsystem to publish messages about changes to
OR connections.
connection_or_change_state() in connection_or.c and
control_event_or_conn_event() in control.c publish messages to this
subsystem via helper functions.
Move state constants from connection_or.h to orconn_state.h so that
subscribers don't have to include all of connection_or.h to take
actions based on changes in OR connection state. Move event constants
from control.h for similar reasons.
