- When we detached from a circuit because of resolvefailed, we
would immediately try the same circuit twice more, and then
give up on the resolve thinking we'd tried three different
exit nodes.
- Limit the number of intro circuits we'll attempt to build for a
hidden service per 15-minute period.
- Check recommended-software string *early*, before actually parsing
the directory. Thus we can detect an obsolete version and exit,
even if the new directory format doesn't parse.
o Fixes for security bugs:
