o Major features:
- When using an exit nodes running 0.2.3.1-alpha and later,
clients can now "optimistically" send data on a stream before
the exit node reports that the stream has opened. This can save
a round trip when starting connections with protocols where the
client speaks first. This behavior is controlled by a (currently
disabled) networkstatus consensus parameter. To turn it on or
off manually, use the "OptimisticData" torrc option. Implements
proposal 181; code by Ian Goldberg.
