New description:

 In #30956, I discovered that the ed25519 signature extra-info line is
 split across two chunks.

 If the extra-info file gets too big, tor removes one chunk at a time. So
 each chunk needs to be a complete line.

 Edit: but in this case, we should just stop removing the signature

Comment:

 It turns out that we need to split these chunks, because the ed25519
 signature keyword is in the signed part of the document. So I made sure we
 don't remove any signature chunks.

 Nick, do you think we should backport this fix any further than 0.4.1?
