#11519: uninitialized timeval causing valgrind errors

 Priority:  normal      |      Milestone:
Component:  Tor         |        Version:  Tor: 0.2.5.3-alpha

------------------------+------------------------------------
 I noticed some valgrind errors while debugging Tor 0.2.5.2-alpha in
 Shadow. The problem still exists in Tor master as of today.

 In circuituse.c, line 1518, the {{{struct timeval old_timestamp_began;}}}
 is declared, but never initialized before being used on line 1556:

 {{{
 control_event_circuit_cannibalized(circ, old_purpose,
                                          &old_timestamp_began);
 }}}

 Should {{{old_timestamp_began}}} have been set to
 {{{circ->base_.timestamp_began}}} before updating
 {{{circ->base_.timestamp_began}}} in line 1553?

 Some valgrind backtraces:
