[tor-commits] [tor/master] Deprecate the "--dump-config non-builtin" option

commit 62e1d983cf362d6769e763e8b50ab8a51bdc84d4
Author: Nick Mathewson <nickm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

    Deprecate the "--dump-config non-builtin" option
    
    When it works, "non-builtin" doesn't do anything different from
    "short".  (When it doesn't work, it gives an assertion failure.)
    
    Closes ticket #33398.
