4d6a971ba9 Tweak 13913 fix: clarify that the behavior is not promised
Also, it's->its.  The apostrophe is used if and only if it's a
contraction for "it is".

14e83e626b Add two hidden-service related statistics.
The two statistics are:
 1. number of RELAY cells observed on successfully established
    rendezvous circuits; and
 2. number of .onion addresses observed as hidden-service
    directory.

Both statistics are accumulated over 24 hours, obfuscated by rounding
up to the next multiple of a given number and adding random noise,
and written to local file stats/hidserv-stats.

Notably, no statistics will be gathered on clients or services, but
only on relays.

68af1e7e9b Throw identify-node-by-nickname down the memory hole
Authorities are no longer voting on Named, so specifying nodes by
nickname isn't a clever thing to do.  (Not that it ever was!)  So
remove the documentation that suggests that you should do it.

Additionally, add proper cross-references to our __node__ lists, and
explain about the optional $ before identity digests.

Also, the oxford comma: endorsed by Steven Pinker, my spouse, and my
11th grade English teacher.

Closes 13381.

27f30040f6 Add TestingDirAuthVoteExit option (like TestingDirAuthVoteGuard)
Add the TestingDirAuthVoteExit option, a list of nodes to vote Exit for,
regardless of their uptime, bandwidth, or exit policy.

TestingTorNetwork must be set for this option to have any effect.

Works around an issue where authorities would take up to 35 minutes to
give nodes the Exit flag in a test network, despite short consensus
intervals. Partially implements ticket 13161.

17ecd04fde Change the logic for the default for MaxMemInQueues
If we can't detect the physical memory, the new default is 8 GB on
64-bit architectures, and 1 GB on 32-bit architectures.

If we *can* detect the physical memory, the new default is
  CLAMP(256 MB, phys_mem * 0.75, MAX_DFLT)
where MAX_DFLT is 8 GB on 64-bit architectures and 2 GB on 32-bit
architectures.

You can still override the default by hand.  The logic here is simply
trying to choose a lower default value on systems with less than 12 GB
of physical RAM.

f680d0fdd2 Educate tor on OpenBSD's use of divert-to rules with the pf firewall.
This means that tor can run without needing to communicate with ioctls
to the firewall, and therefore doesn't need to run with privileges to
open the /dev/pf device node.

A new TransProxyType is added for this purpose, "pf-divert"; if the user
specifies this TransProxyType in their torrc, then the pf device node is
never opened and the connection destination is determined with getsockname
(as per pf(4)). The default behaviour (ie., when TransProxyType is "default"
when using the pf firewall) is still to assume that pf is configured with
rdr-to rules.

3e4680f312 ipfw TransPort support on FreeBSD (10267)
This isn't on by default; to get it, you need to set "TransProxyType

/dev/pf is present and openable, but that seems marginally fragile.)

In this patch, we make the default P256 for everybody.

2e1fe1fcf9 Implement a real OOM-killer for too-long circuit queues.
This implements "algorithm 1" from my discussion of bug #9072: on OOM,
find the circuits with the longest queues, and kill them.  It's also a
fix for #9063 -- without the side-effects of bug #9072.

The memory bounds aren't perfect here, and you need to be sure to
allow some slack for the rest of Tor's usage.

This isn't a perfect fix; the rest of the solutions I describe on
codeable.

a3f6f3316a Remove various outdated documents.
doc/TODO and doc/spec/README were placeholders to tell people where to
look for the real TODO and README stuff -- we replaced them years ago,
though.

authority-policy, v3-authority-howto, and torel-design.txt belong in
torspec.  I'm putting them in attic there since I think they may be in
large part obsolete, but someone can rescue them if they're not.

translations.txt is outdated, and refers to lots of programs other
than Tor.  We have much better translation resources on the website
now.

tor-win32-mingw-creation.txt is pending review of a revised version
for 0.2.5 (see ticket #4520), but there's no reason to ship this one
while we're waiting for an accurate version.

the tor-rpm-creation.txt isn't obsolete AFAIK, but it belongs in
doc/contrib if anywhere.

Resolves bug #8965.

4d54b9774d Add support for offsetting the voting interval in order to bootstrap faster.
A new option TestingV3AuthVotingStartOffset is added which offsets the
starting time of the voting interval. This is possible only when
TestingTorNetwork is set.

This patch makes run_scheduled_events() check for new consensus
downloads every second when TestingTorNetwork, instead of every
minute. This should be fine, see #8532 for reasoning.

This patch also brings MIN_VOTE_SECONDS and MIN_DIST_SECONDS down from
20 to 2 seconds, unconditionally. This makes sanity checking of
misconfiguration slightly less sane.

Addresses #8532.

ff9bdbd56f When excluding nodes by country, exclude {??} and {A1} too
This is ticket 7706, reported by "bugcatcher."  The rationale here
is that if somebody says 'ExcludeNodes {tv}', then they probably
don't just want to block definitely Tuvaluan nodes: they also want
to block nodes that have unknown country, since for all they know
such nodes are also in Tuvalu.

This behavior is controlled by a new GeoIPExcludeUnknown autobool
option.  With the default (auto) setting, we exclude ?? and A1 if
any country is excluded.  If the option is 1, we add ?? and A1
unconditionally; if the option is 0, we never add them.

(Right now our geoip file doesn't actually seem to include A1: I'm
including it here in case it comes back.)

This feature only takes effect if you have a GeoIP file.  Otherwise
you'd be excluding every node.

b0b3c14c11 Eliminate MaxOnionsPending; replace it with MaxOnionQueueDelay
The right way to set "MaxOnionsPending" was to adjust it until the
processing delay was appropriate.  So instead, let's measure how long
it takes to process onionskins (sampling them once we have a big
number), and then limit the queue based on its expected time to
finish.

This change is extra-necessary for ntor, since there is no longer a
reasonable way to set MaxOnionsPending without knowing what mix of
onionskins you'll get.

This patch also reserves 1/3 of the onionskin spots for ntor
handshakes, on the theory that TAP handshakes shouldn't be allowed to
starve their speedier cousins.  We can change this later if need be.

Resolves 7291.
