Nick Mathewson 96f1e69f24 Implement proposal 275: don't put "published" times in md consensus 
When a new consensus method is negotiated, these values will all get
replaced with "2038-01-01 00:00:00".

This change should be safe because:

  * As of 0.2.9.11 / 0.3.0.7 / 0.3.1.1-alpha, Tor takes no action
    about published_on times in the future.

  * The only remaining parties relying on published_on values are (we
    believe) relays running 0.3.5.x, which rely on the values in a NS
    consensus to see whether their descriptors are out of date.  But
    this patch only changes microdesc consensuses.

  * The latest Tor no longer looks at this field in consensuses.

Why make this change?  In experiments, replacing these values with a
fixed value made the size of compressed consensus diffs much much
smaller.  (Like, by over 50%!)

Implements proposal 275; Implements #40130.

README 

Tor protects your privacy on the internet by hiding the connection
between your Internet address and the services you use. We believe Tor
is reasonably secure, but please ensure you read the instructions and
configure it properly.

To build Tor from source:
        ./configure && make && make install

To build Tor from a just-cloned git repository:
        sh autogen.sh && ./configure && make && make install
