[tor-commits] [tor/maint-0.2.9] dos: Don't set consensus param if we aren't a public relay



commit 4fe4f8179fe81244319c7fdec64299b6506434a2
Author: David Goulet <dgoulet@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

    dos: Don't set consensus param if we aren't a public relay
    
    We had this safeguard around dos_init() but not when the consensus changes
    which can modify consensus parameters and possibly enable the DoS mitigation
    even if tor wasn't a public relay.
    
    Fixes #25223
