New description:

 In chutney networks, there's a race condition when bridges try to publish
 their descriptor to the bridge authority:
 * bridges have AssumeReachable set
 * bridges try to publish their descriptors before bootstrapping
 * but bridges can't publish their descriptors, because they don't have
 enough directory info to build a circuit to the bridge authority

 Also, bridges do not retry publishing their descriptor immediately after
 they bootstrap.

 Once we fix #33582, we can fix this issue.
