#16052: Hidden service socket exhaustion by opening many connections

Comment (by yawning):

 So where this stands now is:

  * ~~Refactor the code that touches origin_circuit_t.p_streams to use
 TOR_LIST_* so it's easier to audit the stream counter code that got added
 (per discussion with nickm).~~ (Moved to #16134)
  * ~~Test it.~~ (Behaves as expected per asn, though CPU consumption is
 still high, and exact behavior not finalized yet.)
  * Argue over what exactly should happen when the threshold is tripped
 (what I do now?  kill the circuit?  mess with circuit level flow control?
 Display MLP ascii art in the logs?).
  * Add a changes file.
  * Update the man page.

 When working on #16134, I found that I'm not doing book keeping in
 `circuit_mark_for_close()` but I view that as acceptable (no point in
 zeroing out the number of streams when the circuit is getting torn down
 anyway).
