    Fix max sampled size logic when in bridge mode.
    
    When calculating max sampled size, Tor would only count the number of
    bridges in torrc, without considering that our state file might already
    have sampled bridges in it. This caused problems when people swap
    bridges, since the following error would trigger:
    
             [warn] Not expanding the guard sample any further; just hit the
                    maximum sample threshold of 1
