    Take a smarter approach to clearing isolation info
    
    Back when I added this logic in 20c0581a79, the rule was that whenever
    a circuit finished building, we cleared its isolation info. I did that
    so that we would still use the circuit even if all the streams that
    had previously led us to tentatively set its isolation info had closed.
    
    But there were problems with that approach: We could pretty easily get
    into a case where S1 had led us to launch C1 and S2 had led us to
    launch C2, but when C1 finished, we cleared its isolation and attached
    S2 first.  Since C2 was still marked in a way that made S1
    unattachable to it, we'd then launch another circuit needlessly.
    
    So instead, we try the following approach now: when a circuit is done
    building, we try to attach streams to it.  If it remains unused after
    we try attaching streams, then we clear its isolation info, and try
    again to attach streams.
    
    Thanks to Sebastian for helping me figure this out.
