 Bugs like #12466 and #12450 have made it clear that the data structures
 and methods of the guard nodes code are not very robust. To fix those
 tickets with the current data structures, we would need even more kludges
 that would lower the code quality.

 This is a ticket about finding a more elegant approach to keeping entry
 guards and directory guards.

 I'm putting this in 0.2.6 milestone because it's important, but it might
 get deferred if it's too much work.
