Hi, dear developers and tor-dev

I have been following the development of Arti closely and would like to suggest a new and modern feature:

Adding support for the REALITY protocol as a optional new PT protocol in Arti.

I suggest REALITY as a new optional protocol, since REALITY unlike traditional PTs which rely on traffic obfuscation or domain fronting, REALITY borrows real TLS sessions from existing websites, which could be very useful for Tor users, who needs to bypass DPI.

Additionally, I would be willing to work on this new feature, if it's acceptable to you. However, in my opinion, it could be implemented as an new PT plugin via tor-ptmgr, with corresponding configuration changes in arti-client.

I look forward to your feedback.

Best regards,

pryty26
