The programming guide and docstrings mention which onion APIs are
experimental; those will change.

The previously-released TCPHiddenServiceEndpoint and
EphemeralHiddenService APIs will maintain backwards compatiblity. The
names for the new things use "onion" (e.g. .create_onion_service)

Basically the idea is similar to (inspired by?) what Twisted itself
provides: if your code doesn't currently cause txtorcon to emit
warnings, then you can upgrade. Currently there are no warnings, so
everyone can upgrade.
