o Major bugfixes:
- Many SOCKS5 clients, when configured to offer a username/password,
offer both username/password authentication and "no authentication".
Tor had previously preferred no authentication, but this was
problematic when trying to make applications get proper stream
isolation with IsolateSOCKSAuth. Now, on any SOCKS port with
IsolateSOCKSAuth turned on (which is the default), Tor selects
username/password authentication if it's offered. If this confuses your
application, you can disable it on a per-SOCKSPort basis via
PreferSOCKSNoAuth. Fixes bug 8117; bugfix on 0.2.3.3-alpha.
