 Right now, the path bias code counts any circuit that succeeds as a
 success. However, this is incorrect. Circuits can still be tagged *after*
 they succeed, by embedding the tag in a RELAY_BEGIN or RELAY_RESOLVE.

 Clients should therefore decrement a guard's success count and increment
 the failure count for any circuit that is destroyed after successful
 construction, but hasn't successfully carried any streams.
