[tor-commits] [tor/master] Move consdiffmgr_rescan() into a mainloop event.

[nickm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

commit 8a81a70878bb0f77ebdf1e6fda436b4b6af14f9a
Author: Nick Mathewson <nickm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Date:   Thu Apr 26 12:20:01 2018 -0400

    Move consdiffmgr_rescan() into a mainloop event.
    
    The change here was very simple, since there is a flag set whenever
    we want to schedule this event.
    
    Closes ticket 25391.
