In this commit, we add a check for the Tor server's version number to
ensure it supports creating v3 onion services through its control port.

tor

The tor package contains utility functions that allow for interacting with the Tor daemon. So far, supported functions include:

  • Routing all traffic over Tor's exposed SOCKS5 proxy.
  • Routing DNS queries over Tor (A, AAAA, SRV).
  • Limited Tor Control functionality (synchronous messages only). So far, this includes:
    • Support for SAFECOOKIE authentication only as a sane default.
    • Creating v2 onion services.

In the future, the Tor Control functionality will be extended to support v3 onion services, asynchronous messages, etc.
