    Clarifying why test's load_conf() expects an exception
    
    For a long while I've been puzzled why this load_conf() call asserted an
    exception. When I ran it in a cusom prompt it ran fine - turned out that it was
    relying on us having a custom DataDir. Tor balks (rightfully) when we'd shift
    our DataDir out from a running tor instance.
    
    Doing a better job explaining what's up in the comment.
