[tor-dev] Static compile config and incore runtime [HS via Control Port]

[grarpamp <grarpamp@xxxxxxxxx>]

In situations where it is inconvenient / impossible to
manage / rely a bunch of library files, dropping a static
compiled tor in place is handy. Similarly, it should be possible
to completely configure and run tor in that one static
binary and in ram... no other files at all (torrc, geoip, .tor
state dir, etc)... depending on your config.

It may be necessary to compile in a basic torrc
just to get tor going, before you can spawn a
control port. Other torrc/commandline options may
not as of today be available via the control port...
so they would need compiled in and just run './tor' .

In some unique situations you may not even be
able to spawn/access the control port. So ability
compiling in HS keys etc would be useful there.

There may already be some tickets for these things.
