 Without checking the source code right now, HSDirs are supposed to cache
 HS descriptors for the inscribed lifetime (3 hours), and HSv3s are
 supposed to upload descriptors at a random time between 1 and 2 hours (see
 `HS_SERVICE_NEXT_UPLOAD_TIME_MIN`).

 This makes HSv3s upload descriptors more frequently than needed. For
 example, we could increase this to upload descriptors between 2 and 2.9
 hours, to make HSv3s less intense on the network.

 Someone should double check the above logic and make sure it won't cause
 issues, and implement it.
