[tor-commits] [stem/master] Adding get_latest_heartbeat()

    Adding get_latest_heartbeat()
    
    Adding a method to the BaseController to get the time that we last heard from
    tor. This is useful to figure out if our controller connection has stalled, but
    only works if we're continually using our controller (such as by listening for
    BW events).
