Comment(by Sebastian):

 Looks good and gives newly bootstrapping authorities a consensus
 immediately in my test network.

 In the patch, I'm wondering why we use valid_until here:

 +    if (live_con && now < live_con->valid_until +
 AUTHORITY_NS_DOWNLOAD_DELAY)

 wouldn't fresh_until be the right thing? That would mean the authority
 will fetch a new consensus if it didn't participate in making the current
 one, which seems to be what we want iiuic.
