Changes (by teor):
* status: needs_review => merge_ready
Comment:
I think this patch looks good, because:
* if clients don't have a (directory guard or fallback or authority) onion
key, they use TLS and CREATE_FAST
* (the non-directory guard code makes sure we have an onion key before
we connect)
* if clients have an onion key, they default to using it, or the consensus
parameter, or the torrc option
Although, I just realised that if clients don't have a consensus, they
won't believe any onion keys. So does this change have any effect at all?
In either case, let's merge it.
