 The man page has old minimal bandwidth requirements, let's update them to
 be consistent with the relay guide and the FAQ


 man page currently says: https://www.torproject.org/docs/tor-manual-
 dev.html.en#BandwidthRate
 "
 If you want to run a relay in the public network, this needs to be at the
 very least 75 KBytes for a relay (that is, 600 kbits) or 50 KBytes for a
 bridge (400 kbits)  but of course, more is better; we recommend at least
 250 KBytes (2 mbits) if possible.
 "

 Proposed version for the man page:
 "
 If you want to run a relay in the public network, this needs to be at the
 very least 8 MBit/s (Mbps) for a relay or 1 MBit/s for a bridge   but of
 course, more is better; we recommend at least 16 MBit/s if possible.
 "
