    Provide a User-Agent when downloading descriptors
    
    By default urllib provides a user agent that simply says that we're using
    python. On reflection lets specify that the download is coming from Stem. This
    will give our dirauths a bit more visibility into DirPort requests they're
    servicing, and Stem versions that are actively being used to download
    descriptors.
