[tor-commits] [tor/master] Rewrite the logic for deciding when to drop old/superseded certificates



commit 69df16e3765383bd59fd2fbedbb5301f3b58ab14
Author: Nick Mathewson <nickm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

    Rewrite the logic for deciding when to drop old/superseded certificates
    
    Fixes bug 11454, where we would keep around a superseded descriptor
    if the descriptor replacing it wasn't at least a week later.  Bugfix
    on 0.2.1.8-alpha.
    
    Fixes bug 11457, where a certificate with a publication time in the
    future could make us discard existing (and subsequent!) certificates
    with correct publication times.  Bugfix on 0.2.0.3-alpha.
