    Revert "Include the originating stacktrace in stem.descriptor.remote exceptions"
    
    Unfortunately in this case the cure is worse than the disease. When dannenberg
    went down this caused stacktraces in DocTor's emails which gives the impression
    the service is having problems...
    
      ERROR: Unable to retrieve the consensus from dannenberg (http://193.23.244.244:80/tor/status-vote/current/consensus): <urlopen error <urlopen error [Errno 111] Connection refused>
    
      Original traceback:
        File "/srv/doctor.torproject.org/doctor/stem/descriptor/remote.py", line 594, in _download_descriptors
          self.content, self.reply_headers = _download_from_dirport(self.download_url, self.compression, timeout)
        File "/srv/doctor.torproject.org/doctor/stem/descriptor/remote.py", line 1043, in _download_from_dirport
          timeout = timeout,
        File "/usr/lib/python2.7/urllib2.py", line 154, in urlopen
          return opener.open(url, data, timeout)
        File "/usr/lib/python2.7/urllib2.py", line 429, in open
          response = self._open(req, data)
        File "/usr/lib/python2.7/urllib2.py", line 447, in _open
          '_open', req)
        File "/usr/lib/python2.7/urllib2.py", line 407, in _call_chain

          return self.do_open(httplib.HTTPConnection, req)
        File "/usr/lib/python2.7/urllib2.py", line 1198, in do_open
          raise URLError(err)
      URLError: <urlopen error [Errno 111] Connection refused>
    
    I'm kinda torn on this change. On one hand it's usful information for unusual
    errors, but on the other it's troubling looking bloat for mundane things like
    this.
    
    Encoding a stacktrace within an encepiton message was definitely an icky hack
    so simply reverting this for now. Most likely we'll simply need to live without
    underlying stacktraces until we drop python 2.x support.
    
    This reverts commit cc43a6ca90e3943a542258b2b4d8466ae9a4ac36.
