[tor-commits] [tor/master] Implement port/file-descriptor exhaustion metric.



commit faf1fe833eb4a59aae4843b450b85b4d8894ba02
Author: George Kadianakis <desnacked@xxxxxxxxxx>
Date:   Tue Mar 9 15:40:00 2021 +0200

    Implement port/file-descriptor exhaustion metric.
    
    This uses a heuristic that came up after a discussion with David.
    
    I'm leaving this as a separate commit so that it can be discussed further if
    needed.
