Alter how guard flags are chosen.

V3 authorities no longer decide not to vote on Guard+Exit. The bandwidth
weights should take care of this now.

Also, lower the max threshold for WFU to 0.98, to allow more nodes to become
guards.

o Minor bugfixes
- Alter directory authorities to always consider Exit-flagged nodes
as potential Guard nodes in their votes. The actual decision to
use Exits as Guards is done in the consensus bandwidth weights.
Fixes bug 1294; bugfix on 0.2.2.10-alpha.
o Minor features:
- Lower the maximum weighted-fractional-uptime cutoff to 98%. This
should give us approximately 40-50% more Guard-flagged nodes.

"Guard" -- A router is a possible 'Guard' if its Weighted Fractional
Uptime is at least the median for "familiar" active routers, and if
its bandwidth is at least median or at least 250KB/s.
If the total bandwidth of active non-BadExit Exit servers is less
than one third of the total bandwidth of all active servers, no Exit is
listed as a Guard.
To calculate weighted fractional uptime, compute the fraction
of time that the router is up in any given day, weighting so that
