 Am I reading your branch wrong, or is there no relevant commit here?

 I'm afraid we'll need a bit more complexity here -- for starters, we don't
 want to cap everybody when there aren't three measuring authorities. I
 wonder if it would be simpler just to have bwauths vote at-most-50KB on
 relays they don't have an opinion about. That would also make it really
 easy for us to adapt it to be vote-at-most-.1% in the future. The downside
 is that it would now be harder to recognize whether the vote is an actual
 vote or a cap vote. We could have them say something else on the w line if
 it's a cap vote, to distinguish. Starts to get a bit klunky though.
