    fix: concurrency issue could crash from CIRC event
    
    If we got a CIRC event while populating the cache of relays that we're attached
    to we could reset _fingerprintsAttachedCache to None while we were in the
    middle of populating it. Manipulation of this cache is supposed to be governed
    by the connection lock, so fixing that for the CIRC event's reset.
