- When an HTTPS proxy reports "403 Forbidden", we now explain

Closes bug 2503. Patch from Michael Yakubovich.

o Minor bugfixes:
- - When loading the microdesc journal, remember its current size.
- In 0.2.2, this helps prevent the microdesc journal from growing
- without limit on authorities (who are the only ones to use it in
- 0.2.2). Fixes a part of bug 2230; bugfix on 0.2.2.6-alpha.
- Fix posted by "cypherpunks."
- - The microdesc journal is supposed to get rebuilt only if it is
- at least _half_ the length of the store, not _twice_ the length
- of the store. Bugfix on 0.2.2.6-alpha; fixes part of bug 2230.
- Authorities now clean their microdesc cache periodically and when
reading from disk initially, not only when adding new descriptors.
This prevents a bug where we could lose microdescriptors. Bugfix
on 0.2.2.6-alpha. 2230
- - Fix a potential null-pointer dereference while computing a

holding it open. That's fine on Unix, but Windows doesn't let us
do that.) Bugfix on 0.2.2.6-alpha; bug found by wanoskarnet.

- Resolve an untriggerable issue in smartlist_string_num_isin(),

for the presence of a too-large number, it would have given an
incorrect result. (Fortunately, we only used it for 16-bit
