    Integration test race when multiple tor processes are running
    
    Our flakiest integration tests on Jenkins tend to be our system tests...

      ----------------------------------------------------------------------
    
    These tests skip themselves if multiple tor processes are running, *but* they
    fail in this fashion if a tor process spawns *during* the test.
    
    To reduce the chances of this the tests now check for additional tor processes
    both before *and* after the test. In theory an error could still occure if a
    tor process both starts *and* stops in the middle of a test but I'm unsure if
    this will really happen in practice. Lets see. If these assertion errors
    continue to show up I might simply move them under a special target.
