Subject: Rename CircPriorityHalflifeMsec to CircuitPriorityHalflifeMsec
Commit: 96a0edf373b52da382206d12716ebd1cb96a1518

Everything that accepted the 'Circ' name handled it wrong, so even now
that we fixed the handling of the parameter, we wouldn't be able to
set it without making all the 0.2.2.7..0.2.2.10 relays act wonky.
This patch makes Tors accept the 'Circuit' name instead, so we can
turn on circuit priorities without confusing the versions that treated
the 'Circ' name as occasion to act weird.
