[tor-commits] [tor/master] mainloop: Explain local connections better



commit 98899f20ad22e97c03235cfe13ff1fe416a15509
Author: teor <teor@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

    mainloop: Explain local connections better
    
    Some connections aren't counted for statistics or accounting,
    because they have been specifically configured by the user to
    local addresses.
    
    Comment-only change.
    
    Closes 33201.
