This is a small bump in bridge users, mostly obfs4, in the past few days.

However that bump needs to put in context. I don't think the stats from
the UAE are completely reliable, because of anomalies that began in 2017.
(See the entries with places=ae at [[doc/MetricsTimeline#Unknown]]. I'm
pretty sure that the relay users graph is bogus, and that there are not
really 300,000 users. The bridge user count has been messed up in the past
as well.
