 Tor 0.3.0 merged #6769, which makes all tors use microdescriptors by
 default.

 A side effect of this change was that FetchUselsssDescriptors 1 used to
 imply UseMicrodescriptors 0. Now it doesn't any more.

 So bandwidth authorities need to set UseMicrodescriptors 0 in their
 torrcs, when using tor client versions 0.3.0 and later.

 (Bandwidth authorities which use relays will continue to download full
 consensuses.)
