Comment(by arma):

 Yes, I know this is what the code does now. But let's say I wanted to
 change Tor's behavior so it never "reads" past its read bucket size.
 (here, "reads" means getting the cells out of openssl's buffers into tor's
 buffers.) If I just delete all the code you quoted, I get this behavior.
 But I may have a new bug, which is that Tor never thinks to check if
 SSL_pending(conn->tls->ssl), because Tor assumed that we would never leave
 pending bytes pending. The question is: would I in fact have this new bug?
 Or does libevent consider SSL_pending() and trigger the callback if so?

 (If I would have the new bug, is it hard to make libevent trigger the
 callback when SSL_pending is true, or is this a rat's nest I would rather
 avoid?)
