#8766: Tor never recovers when started with skewed clock

Comment (by arma):
This is related to the comment in main.c, around the clock jump message:
{{{
/* XXX if the time jumps *back* many months, do our events in
* run_scheduled_events() recover? I don't think they do. -RD */
}}}
And even if we fix those static time_t's, we have other places in the code
where e.g. time_to_download_next_consensus[] is full of times from the
distant future.
This is going to be rough to fix. But it sure would be nice to fix.
