c4b83b2177 Clarify that TRUNCATE behavior isn't as-intended
In tor-spec.txt, instead of saying "nodes may X" instead say "Current
nodes do X; this is nonconformant. Clients should watch out for that."

Based on observations by wanoskarnet.

6f45101327 Clear cell queues when marking or truncating a circuit.
At best, this patch helps us avoid sending queued relayed cells that
would get ignored during the time between when a destroy cell is
sent and when the circuit is finally freed.  At worst, it lets us
release some memory a little earlier than it would otherwise.

Fix for bug #1184.  Bugfix on 0.2.0.1-alpha.

4ef609b886 Fix compilation issue in doc/Makefile.am on NetBSD
* doc/Makefile.am: Change $(VAR:MOD) to ${VAR:MOD} -- make(1) on
NetBSD substitutes '$(:x)' to 'x' rather than the empty string.  This
bites us in doc/ when configured with `--disable-asciidoc'.  Curly
braces should work in all implementations of make(1) but this patch
changes only the places where we use the VAR:MOD expansion.

9d5d0f040f 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.

f4f11adf4c In asciidoc-helper.sh, be more verbose when a2x fails.
Previously, we said (more or less), "a2x is broken and here's how you could
try to fix it".  Instead, we now say "We need a2x to build manpages; a2x
didn't work; here is a fix that might work for you; alternatively you
could just skip manpage building."

Addresses bug 1524.

Also, give the message as a here-document rather than a bunch of echos.

29e0d70814 Bug 1296: Add option+logic to disable CBT learning.
There are now four ways that CBT can be disabled:

1. Network-wide, with the cbtdisabled consensus param.
2. Via config, with "LearnCircuitBuildTimeout 0"
3. Via config, with "AuthoritativeDirectory 1"
4. Via a state file write failure.

8ec5f939a6 Add new sections to the HACKING file
The main changes are to explain how we use git branches, how we use
changes files, and what should go into a patch.  Putting these in
HACKING means that we shouldn't need to constantly refer to the or-dev
emails where we explain this stuff.

96a0edf373 Rename CircPriorityHalflifeMsec to CircuitPriorityHalflifeMsec
Everything that accepted the 'Circ' name handled it wrong, so even now
that we fixed the handling of the parameter, we wouldn't be able to
set it without making all the 0.2.2.7..0.2.2.10 relays act wonky.
This patch makes Tors accept the 'Circuit' name instead, so we can
turn on circuit priorities without confusing the versions that treated
the 'Circ' name as occasion to act weird.

in our helpful error text when making the docs fails, we forgot to
also list libxml2-utils. Let's add that.

9e473bd1be Update idea xxx-using-spdy, based on or-dev discussion
- Mention potentially negative consequence of server push, combined
  with client caching

- Make the new cell type more generic, allowing other types of
  exit-side transforms (suggested by nickm)

2917c0596c Restrict PerConnBWRate|Burst to INT32_MAX, update manpage
All other bandwidthrate settings are restricted to INT32_MAX, but
this check was forgotten for PerConnBWRate and PerConnBWBurst. Also
update the manpage to reflect the fact that specifying a bandwidth
in terabytes does not make sense, because that value will be too
large.
