Update required/recommended protocol lists more systematically

Browse Source 
First I began with a set of candidates:

  The client's _required_ list starts with all the protocols
  supported by every release in 0.2.9-stable through current
  master.

  The client's _required_ list starts with all the protocols
  supported by every release in 0.3.5-stable through current
  master.

  Everybody's _recommended_ list starts with all the protocols
  supported by every release in 0.3.5-stable through current master.

Then I removed the protocol versions that we do not actually want to
require or recommend:

  DirCache=1 (deprecated)
  HSDir=1, HSIntro=1-3, HSRend=1 (deprecated)
  (All HS* protocol requirements for clients)
  Link=1-3 (deprecated)
  LinkAuth=1 (obsolete)
  Relay=1 (obsolete)

o Minor features (authorities):
- Authorities now list the directory formats used by currently supported
Tor releases as required. Previously, they listed only the formats
supported by older Tor releases as required. This change makes
the subprotocols "Cons=2 Desc=2 Microdesc=2" required, and makes
"Cons=1 Desc=1 Microdesc=1" no longer required or recommended.
- Authorities now list a different set of protocols as required and
recommended. These lists are chosen so that only truly recommended
and/or required protocols are included, and so that clients using 0.2.9
or later will continue to work (even though they are not supported),
whereas only relays running 0.3.5 or later will meet the requirements.
Closes ticket 40162.
