{rend,tor}-spec: clarify linkspec ID multiplicity issues
We were previously a bit unclear on how to handle multiple linkspecs
of type ed25519, and our spec didn't actually permit Tor's current
behavior.
Now we say that both Ed25519 ID and Legacy ID linkspecs MUST appear
at most once in a list of linkspecs, and that parties SHOULD
enforce this.
This is "problem 1" on torspec#193.
