#20837: Turn on client iat-mode for some default obfs4 bridges

------------------------------------------+-------------------------
Since the last release, some of the default bridges have turned on obfs4's
packet size and timing obfuscation (`iat-mode`). Here is the thread where
it came up:
[tor-project] Turning on timing obfuscation (iat-mode=1) for some
default bridges
https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-
project/2016-November/000776.html
We should make the client setting of `iat-mode` match the server setting.
(If the two sides do not have the same setting, the connection will still
work, but only one direction will be using the packet size and timing
obfuscation.)
