This representation is meant to save memory in microdescriptors --
we can't use it in routerinfo_t yet, since those families need to be
encoded losslessly for directory voting to work.
This representation saves memory in three ways:
1. It uses only one allocation per family. (The old way used a
smartlist (2 allocs) plus one strdup per entry.)
2. It stores identity digests in binary, not hex.
3. It keeps families in a canonical format, memoizes, and
reference-counts them.
Part of #27359.
The main.c code is responsible for initialization and shutdown;
the mainloop.c code is responsible for running the main loop of Tor.
Splitting the "generic event loop" part of mainloop.c from the
event-loop-specific part is not done as part of this patch.
In dirauth:
* bwauth.c reads and uses bandwidth files
* guardfraction.c reads and uses the guardfraction file
* reachability.c tests relay reachability
* recommend_pkg.c handles the recommended-packages lines.
* recv_descs.c handles fingerprint files and processing incoming
routerinfos that relays upload to us
* voteflag.c computes flag thresholds and sets those thresholds on
routerstatuses when computing votes
In control:
* fmt_serverstatus.c generates the ancient "v1 server status"
format that controllers expect.
In nodelist:
* routerstatus_fmt.c formats routerstatus entries for a consensus,
a vote, or for the controller.
It is not enough to look at protover for v3 rendezvous support but also we
need to make sure that the curve25519 onion key is present or in other words
that the descriptor has been fetched and does contain it.
Fixes#27797.

There are now separate modules for:
* the list of router descriptors
* the list of authorities and fallbacks
* managing authority certificates
* selecting random nodes
The trunnel functions are written under the assumption that their
allocators can fail, so GCC LTO thinks they might return NULL. In
point of fact, they're using tor_malloc() and friends, which can't
fail, but GCC won't necessarily figure that out.
Fixes part of #27772.
